Like putting your glasses down and not remembering where you put them. Glad it was just a lens that fell out and not something worse. I periodically check the screws in my glasses now just so that doesn't happen again.linda mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203742811516417039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-51864841469438637242012-07-23T01:00:19.323-05:002012-07-23T01:00:19.323-05:00Oh lord / you made me laugh out loud!

One time I was in a store and when I pulled them down to use, my vision was kind of like yours. When I finally realized I had lost a lens, it dawned on my that I'd dropped my glasses in the fitting room, and the lens was probably there on the floor. I was terrified that someone might have gone in that fitting room after me and stepped on the lens. Thank goodness it all ended well, but I'm sure I got a few funny looks as I ran across that store to get back to the fitting room, hoping to get there in time.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08938874724231860923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-8552166627437262442012-07-22T20:54:37.963-05:002012-07-22T20:54:37.963-05:00Funny!
