Fatty Fatty Four Eyes!

Today Xander and I went to the mall to buy some odds and ends and to pick out our GLASSES!! Certainly not a first for him, but it was for me! I must have tried on every pair of women’s glasses in the place but I kept going back to the same pair…

Trying on Glasses

I have always said that if I were ever to get glasses I’d totally get thick black funky ones… and that I did!! I don’t have them yet, of course, they won’t be ready until Aug 19th, but I got a picture of me with the frames they had for show.

I’m happy with them! Though wearing glasses at all will take getting used to!

I also got another pair, because they are free, like.. you get a 2nd pair free. So I got these.. they are ok but I like the other ones better.

My eyesight isn’t THAT bad, they said it’s a very slight problem. I don’t have to wear the glasses all the time and will be fine without them, but I do see a definate improvement when I have them on (as I saw through the wacky goggles that they put on to test the prescription). Will I get used to having them on my face? Who knows… hopefully the novelty of the new accessory will last a while!

As you can see, the vertical labret is healing up nicely as well! It took about 1.5 – 2 weeks before it started feeling normal. Meaning, without any swelling, discomfort or crusting around the openings. I really love it too, especially because no parts of it are INSIDE my mouth. The fact that it’s a surface piercing makes me a bit nervous though, I really don’t want this one to migrate out on me. Thankfully I know what to watch for this time!

    those glasses are pretty styling. They look good on you!

    I didn’t realize that the labret doesn’t actually go inside the mouth. That’s interesting to know, I was considering doing that, but wasn’t sure if I wanted to have another piercing in my mouth. (my tongue was pierced, but I got tired of that.) interesting to know.

    Yay! I’m glad people like them and don’t think I look like a total nerd :P

    Yoshi – With a vertical labret nothing goes inside your mouth. The piercing is vertical and enters below the lip and comes out on top of the lip. On a REGULAR labret, it does go inside your mouth. This is what I used to have and removed. The inner part of the piercing was rubbing against my gum and wearing it away. So basically if you want just the 1 ball showing below your lip then you will have the other end inside your lip. If you want the 2 balls on the lip like I have, nothing is inside your mouth.
