every now and again i think about how cool it would beto have glasses -- another accessory! all of those snooty gestures i could use to better make my points in conversation! looking smarter! and older! i could use that last one because just this weekend a waitress thought i had just graduated from college -- at least i'm not getting carded anymore.
last month rogray and i were in atlanta visiting momgo & dadgo, celebrating passover, and planning the wedding. . .yay! we all had some time to kill so we popped into a cookware shop for funzies.
momgo immediately set about buying everything she could get her hands on and i looked at the knives. dadgo and rogray looked at other bits and pieces of cooking gadgets and discovered some onion glasses. rogray decided that we should get them because whenever i cut an onion i have to leave the kitchen at least 10 times because my eyes are gushing rivers.
at first i was all "another gadget that is creating a market where there wasn't one before" but that quickly turned into "a surprise present? i'll take it!! and glasses no less!"
last night we took them for a test run.
here i am ready to start the experiment:
aaaaaand action!:
well? well? WELLLLLLLL?
did it work? could i cut half an onion without turning into a blubbering mess? did these magic glasses somehow make me a mean chopping machine?
YESSSSSS! see? i do need glasses.

and they look awesome too!
Come on - she looks like Rocky, or Bullwinkle, or whoever that cartoon aviator was. Two corrections to your post.
I did NOT start shopping for everything I could get my hands on. Two, I was the one who spotted the glasses (perhaps rendering my first correction somewhat disingenuous).
you look like Morpehus, a little.
absolutely moronic.
