T minus NUTTIN'

eyes_preop.JPG

i have made my peace with my gammy eyes and it is time to move on. i have had 20 years of glasses, most of them very reluctant. i begged and cajoled my parents to let me get contacts when i was 15 because Sinead had got them, and she was my glasses-friend. Once she shed the disadvantage (as we saw it) i insisted mine had to go too. Of course I was double-disadvantaged with my orthodontics too, but we won't get into that cos it still brings on shudders in me.

i have foregone mascara for 3 days, and will for another 7. Make no mistake - this is a big committment.

Yes indeed well done. Maybe someday I will follow suit but I am a bit too fond of my spéaclaí at the moment.
