I woke up this morning and felt along my beside table to find my glasses. Found them. Slipped them on.
I normally go straight for the shower but this morning I was feeling lazy. It is Friday, after all. I turn on the lamp by my desk and open up my computer while still gathering my morning wits.
What’s going on, I wonder. I can barely see the computer screen. And it’s kinda dark.
Am I losing my sight? I have to lean in way close to my computer screen to read my inbox. And why is the computer screen so dim?
I step back, realizing what is happening, and begin to freak out. Just a little bit. Seriously. I can’t see at any distance. It should be a lot brighter in my room with the lamp on. What is going on?! Seriously! Is this the beginning stage of going blind?
In my still sleepy, freaking-out state, I reach for my glasses. Maybe they just need to be cleaned?
(Really, no. That would not have fixed it unless my glasses happened to have been caked in mud. But I was still half asleep, guys. I didn’t want to go blind and was willing to try anything!)

I reach up … and take off my non-prescription sunglasses.
Duh. Wrong glasses.
Love!
