"The more you like someone, the more you remember about them, it's just the way it works."

"So If I remember A lot?"

"Well, then you must like that person a lot, But then again, people tend to remember a lot about the people they hate as well."

"I'm pretty sure I can discern Hate from most other feelings... Well... Maybe with the exception of unfulfillment."

"... And of course, you could just have a good memory, or you could be slightly insane."

"Thanks."

I'm trying to sort out a list of expenses for this term.. Well, for at least this month.
At the top of the list: new glasses.

I first suddenly became aware of the fact that wireframes were going extinct last week. Now, more observant of this, I'm becoming oddly uncomfortable just wearing them. At the crosswalk, at work, even when running, I'm outnumbered. Again, this passed weekend I was again one of maybe three people (out of 2 hundred perhaps) wearing wireframes; the other 197 people saw the world through horn rimmed glasses.

I can't make the leap to horn rims. It's just.... it's just too intellectual a look for me, in addition to the fact that I don't want to cave to the dictated trend.

So I've realized my only recourse. Metal Frames. The Uber euro sophisticated Stainless alloy version of the horn rim.

Now, I just need to find a style I like and a color that doesn't contrast so much as to make me look like a vampire. It might be a little off the deep end (it might be), but then, so may my new haircut.

Think you can pick me up a pair before you leave?

Now that you drink beer, I'll buy you a round and we'll call it even :)

hmm..wouldn't quite go as far as to call myself a beer drinker..especially now that I'm back in the land of great wine. (=

(sorry got the request a little late..you'll have to go find those euro frames all on your own)
