Here we are on the way to Colorado last summer. There are a couple of things I want to say about my lovely glasses. One is they are pre-Sarah Palin. Yes, I just liked them. And my Ralph Lauren's square frames I purchased in 1999 are still a hit!
It was funny - how I stepped out and bought what I liked even though no one was wearing the square glasses then. I loved them from the start and everyone else too. Right. Since we all do love the style, when it was time for Carolina Mama to update - yes, you read it right eight years later - I went with these frameless glasses.
No one was wearing them. Pre-Sarah Palin. I loved them, etc. All was right with my glasses wearing self, until a month ago, we were at the beach, the Atlantic Ocean, early one morning. I was reading seaside and all three of 'my men' were boogy boarding. Mountain Man said 'several times' shouldn't you put in your contacts. I assured him I was reading.
Then there was the dip in the ocean, and Mountain Man mentioned taking off the glasses AND designer clips. I know. Craziness. It is like he predicted. So as I was coming in from my little dip/cool off, a wave seriously knocked me down, and shewmmmmmm the entire glasses ensemble were gone.
Gone like the Titanic gone. Talk about 20/20 - oh wait, not 20/20 as in vision but hindsight. So I really paid by walking around in the 'old' Ralph Lauren's I should have had on anyway....
Then the rest of the story is that the lovely highfalutin eye doctor that had the replicas of my lovely Pre-Sarah Palin glasses, they seem to have a problem filling my prescription.
The first time the glasses came back, I was so happy to get the call. Then I realized my reflective coating which is key - was omitted. Okay, I was patient. Then they called again, well, the reflective coating was added but they omitted the high index which is major key!
So the rest of the story is I am still waiting - the third call came this afternoon. So tomorrow I am excited but I also am leery - have they produced the glasses with the items I so need. Ya'll I am really worried that they still will not get it right and did I tell you I paid the full-price 'long ago' when I picked them up the first time. I just want my glasses back, my pre-Sarah Palin glasses, the ones in the bottom of the ocean.
Like the lovely Pre- Sarah Palin glasses above! Can I get a prayer they get it right ya'll!
Want to play "Fro Me to You" and tell your story - because you know 'misery' loves company. [Misery that is until I do receive my lovely Me glasses!]
Warmly,
