four eyes.

 After 7 months of wearing glasses, I have made a list of why being a new glasses wearer full time can really be annoying.

1. Hugging your husband and by habit nuzzling your face into the crook of his shoulder, totally forgetting you have glasses on, which thus causes glasses to get totally smushed.
 
2. On the topic of husbands, you totally can't make out in glasses. Not that we make out much (hint hint husband if you are reading this) but you know what I mean, those suckers get in the way, so not sexy.

3. Forgetting you are wearing glasses and going to rub your eyes. Almost broke them doing that one.

4. Trying to read a book in bed. I like to lean on my side and I switch sides depending on which page I am on.... is that weird or do you guys do that too? Anyways, you can't lay down on your side with glasses on, it smushes them up on one side which is very awkward, and not good for them.

5. Opening up the oven that is very hot, just to get your glasses covered in steam from the heat, blinding you for a moment. Well we are on that lets just add anything that involved steam, the bathroom, a hot cup of soup... you get the idea.

6. Forgetting you are wearing glasses when you get into the shower. Fail.

7. Having your eye itch and trying to get at it, all to hit your finger right on the glass.

8. Getting your hair stuck in the part where the glasses bend and ripping out your hair. I hate that!

9. Bending over while cleaning the toilet lovely visual I know and having them slip right off my head! Oh yeah, that happened!


Why can't I seem to remember I am wearing these darn things?! As fun as I thought wearing glasses full time would be, I mean come on, cute accessory 24/7... I am so over it.

  1. observing surgery in the OR and glasses keep fogging up because of the face mask you have to wear. then you have to perch them low on your nose to avoid it and you look about 90.

  2. Haha, glasses have turned me into a very awkward person at times! Going in for a kiss with my boyfriend (who also has four-eyes) and clinking glasses on contact is always fun... ;)

  3. I've never worn glasses but now I can totally see how that is annoying!

    ReplyDelete
  4. Not fun! But gosh darn it, you rock those babies! Where did you get them?

    ReplyDelete
  5. i can so relate to #8 - ouch!! you look so cute with glasses :)

    ReplyDelete
  6. You look cute in them :) You could always get some contacts and alternate.

    ReplyDelete
  7. Haha amen to all of that. I live in such a humid area too. So when I go from inside to outside, fog up immediately. So annoying. Buts hat do you do with 3d movies?! I barely go to any but once I just needed them to see better, and then the 3d glasses over it was so uncomfortable. Lol

  8. Oh my goodness, I never really thought about the nuisances. You look adorable in your glasses! My husband wears them, switched to contacts but went back to glasses because he so unlike himself!

    ReplyDelete
  9. haha, he *felt so unlike himself

    ReplyDelete
  10. Hahaha I totally have done all of these, oh lovely glasses

    ReplyDelete
  11. I've worn contacts for 10 years, but I've had eye problems lately that will eventually result in surgery so I've been rockin my glasses.

    My bangs look shredded. That's the best word to describe them because of how often my hair gets stuck in my glasses and rips out.

    My new trick is putting my glasses on top of my head when I walk into a building/house because I'm so used to doing that with my sunglasses. Happens all.the.time.

    And I was bending over cleaning the litter box the other day and had them fall right in. Gross.

    The list goes on...I can totally relate.

  12. haha i watch my sister do all of the things above when she is wearing her glasses (minus the making out with my brother in law).
    xx jes

    ReplyDelete
  13. at least they make you look super smart…and adorable!

    ReplyDelete
  14. Oh my gosh...these things happen to me ALL THE TIME. Thus why I wear my glasses only sometimes not all the time...I will suffer allergies with contacts just so I don't have to wear my glasses and deal with all those awkward things!

    ReplyDelete
  15. I've been wearing my glasses full time for about 8 months now. I tried the contacts thing, and it didn't work. I'm going to give it another try this week. Hopefully it works this time, I'm sick of my glasses! But yours look super cute on you.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Hahaha, isn't it funny how the making out sort of dwindles down once you get married? Or maybe I'm the only one.
    I am?
    Oh, nevermind.
    Anyway, now that I have publicly humiliated myself...you look adorable in those glasses.

    ReplyDelete
  17. I completely agree with all of the above! I had an eye infection recently and had to wear glasses full time for almost 6 months and I was miserable. Also annoying is trying to do Zumba in them. You get all sweaty and they slide down your face or you fling them off with your flailing arm movements (maybe it's just me)! There's a reason I started wearing contacts in 8th grade!!

    ReplyDelete
  18. Girlfriend. I have had ALMOST all of those happen... I literally get mad when my hair gets caught... I DONT WANT TO LOSE ANY MORE HAIRs :) BUT, if you look good in glasses then you are a lucky one - so rock them! I wish I could pull those off!

    ReplyDelete
  19. Haha true life to all of these. My worst habit with wearing glasses is walking into walls and doors. My depth perception is completely off so I always think I'm farther away than I actually am... oops!

    ReplyDelete
  20. Oh yes! All are so true! Love your glasses!!

    ReplyDelete
  21. Pretty sure EVERYONE in my family wears glasses except me-- I used to feel like the oddball, but after your list, I'm probably glad I don't have 'em! ;)

    ReplyDelete
  22. I love ready on my side and I hate that when glasses (sunglasses) in my case (when I layout of course.. I don't wear them in the house) don't allow me to do that.

  24. i totally agreeeeeeeeeeeeee. i am contemplating contacts at this very moment.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Hahahaha!!! I've done all these things too. :)

    ReplyDelete
  26. I was over glasses before I even got them. Happiest day of my life (then)? The day I got contacts.

    Contacts were a whole different story ... but still. I wouldn't trade.

    ReplyDelete
  27. yes, yes, yes and yes! I can relate to ALL of these things. Except for the toilet, they have yet to fall in. (knock on wood.) Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I make my husband clean the toilet.

    ReplyDelete
  28. I was nodding my head to all of these. So annoying. Working out in glasses is the worst! And dog nose marks! :)

    ReplyDelete
  29. I hate when your glasses pull your hair out too!! Even if it's just one or two lousy hairs...it HURTS!!!

    ReplyDelete
  30. HAha and for all of these reasons and more contacts are my best friend! Lasik surgery would be my best friend but because of wearing my contacts for 10 years I am no longer a candidate! Boo blindness!

    ReplyDelete
  31. Hahahahahahaha. These always happen to me. At least you look really cute in them!

    ReplyDelete
  32. I totally know what you are going through. Until I got Lasik surgery done! Best thing ever!!! :-))

    ReplyDelete
  33. I've never had to wear glasses, so I can't really empathize. If it helps, you look adorable in them!

    ReplyDelete
  34. Oh!! I always wish I had glasses. This is a good list for me to read..be careful what you wish for and all;)

    ReplyDelete
  35. did they fall IN the toilet ???!?!?!?!?!?!?

    ReplyDelete
  36. #4!! i read like that in bed too!

    ReplyDelete
  37. This post made me laugh! I don't wear glasses, but I've heard all these things be complained about by family member who do! ...except for them slipping off your face into the toilet...that was a new one! =P Lol! =)

  38. ive wanted glasses my whole life. now, im not so sure haha

    ReplyDelete
  39. I totally agree with ALL of those except the very last one...haven't dropped them in the toilet yet, but give me a few more months and I just might!!

    ReplyDelete
  40. nice hahaha! on the positive side-they look good on you!

    ReplyDelete
  41. Ugh...I feel the same way. I usually wear contacts, but when I do wear the glasses it's a mess. The oven thing...so true. Also lying on your side to watch tv...not so comfy...

    ReplyDelete
  42. trying to watch a 3D movie

    watching TV while laying on the couch

    taking family pics & realizing there's a glare

    smudges of all kinds

    I'm 7 months in as well & totally with you here!

    ReplyDelete
  43. I can't imagine how difficult wearing glassed would be to get used to!

    ReplyDelete
  44. I've been wearing glasses since I was a child, and that's been, well, far too many years that I'm willing to admit. I can relate to almost all of these. However, you've got me with the toilet bit. That's never happened. I'm unable to wear contacts, so for me, it's glasses 24/7. I don't mind it. I did mind, actually, having to take them OFF, recently when the DMV said I had to for my new photo. The photo makes me look unrecognizable because I'm never without glasses. It's so weird.

    You learn to live with them. I don't have the issue with reading in bead because, thankfully, I'm near-sighted enough that I can lay down without my glasses and see anything up to about 12 inches away.

    For me, the worst is walking in the rain. I love the rain, but wet glasses? No fair!

    Then, there's makeup. Putting on makeup without glasses is tough enough for the near-blind, but then you have to do it totally differently to compensate for the glasses so you don't look funny.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Oh yes! Totally hate wearing my glasses. So not fun but they look extra cute on you!

    ReplyDelete
  46. I don't wear glasses but my husband does... it really does hinder the cuddling

    ReplyDelete
  47. I second everything you said. Its a pain in the butt. I am about to suck it up and just pay the 90 bucks for contacts again. I miss them!

  48. i would love to wear my glasses more, but my eyelashes push up against the lenses and i lose it. grrr... but you sure are cute in yours. :)

    ReplyDelete
  49. I suffer from the reverse. I wear glasses all the time. When I have contacts in I a constantly adjusting my invisible glasses. It's geeky!

    ReplyDelete
  50. haha! i've worn glasses for the last sixteen years of my life... i can relate to ALL of these. my head used to hurt from where the rest by your ears, too. but don't worry, you get used to it after time:)

    ReplyDelete
  51. Love this! Haha. And you are adorable with your glasses. Also, I'm sorry to break it to you but I do pretty much all of these things and I'm not a new glasses wearer. I've been wearing them since fifth grade! You may never get super used to them. OH, and the whole trying to read in bed thing is totally normal. I switch sides a lot too and it really doesn't work with glasses. SO frustrating!

    ReplyDelete
  52. Haha, oh too funny! You and Rockstar Diaries though... are my two fave peep I've ever laid eyes on wearing glasses -like seriously you look fab in them!

    ReplyDelete
  53. I hate it when glasses get steamed up! Having said that, you sure do rock the look. :)

    ReplyDelete
  54. This is all so true! I also just hate looking through stuff. I don't know, maybe that one's just me, but I don't want to feel like I'm always looking through a window!

    ReplyDelete
  55. hahahaha! literally every single one of these things has happened to me. glasses are fun stuff.

    really though. I love glasses. 'cause some days I just don't feel like wrangling my contacts.

    ReplyDelete
  56. I completely understand how annoying glasses are. I'm supposed to wear glasses but I got tired of them getting in the way of everything that I no longer do. You look gorgeous though! :)

    ReplyDelete
  57. glasses totally suck to wear full time. and getting your hair stuck hurts so bad! add a baby to glasses wearing and it's a whole new level of hate. babies love those things! annoying....

    ReplyDelete
  58. I've been wearing glasses since third grade. So annoying.

    ReplyDelete
  59. haha YES TO ALL! Another thing- bending over a steaming bowl of soup and never being able to see anything! I love your glasses- where did you get them from?

    ReplyDelete
  60. I've been wearing glasses for so long that the only one that's still an issue is the steam!

    ReplyDelete
  61. Ok, i just keep laughing and laughing because i do a lot of these things when I wear my glasses too!! I mean the laying on the side with glasses on while reading IS SUPER IRRITATING isn't it? And don't even get me started on pulling something from a hot oven! Holy heck that is NOT cool at all! Like literally! LOL

    ReplyDelete
  62. I always change sides while reading in bed so I don't have to hold it up in the air...my arms get too tired doing that. That sucks about the loo one! Guessing you haven't made some of these mistakes again :D

    ReplyDelete
  63. I'm new to your blog, but OMG I had to comment on this post! I wear contacts 90% of the time, but during that 10% of glasses:

    I get so frustrated when I hug my husband. It always ends with massive smudges!

    Prior to my Nook, I definitely switched which side I was laying on depending on which side the page I was reading.

    My hubs & I laugh [hard] every time I open the oven with my glasses on. Hilarious!

    ReplyDelete
  64. I love your blog!! Thanks for checking out mine! And I've never worn glasses...but I completely can see where you're coming from. I'm your newest follower :)

    ReplyDelete
  65. My husband thinks it is *hilarious* to try to kiss me while we are both wearing glasses, so we have a total nerd moment. :)

    ReplyDelete
  66. At least you look good in them!!! I remember a time when glasses made you appear nerdy .... Now it makes you look chic!!

    ReplyDelete
  67. I laughed at quite a few of these, but I definitely get how annoying it is to have steamy glasses while cooking. I leaned over a hot stove last night and steamed up my glasses... not fun having to wait a few seconds before being able to see again. :P

    ReplyDelete
  68. I don't wear glasses, but I TOTALLY do that thing where you switch sides when you are reading! I thought I was one of a few weirdos, but I'm glad to know I'm in good company.

    ReplyDelete
  69. Yah... I agree with pretty much all of these :) I've been a glasses wearer my whole life - OK, not out of the womb... But, since I was like 7? ish? ...Anyways, the hubby and I both are glasses wearers... You DEF can't make out with BOTH of you wearing glasses - I hear ya on that one in particular :)

    ReplyDelete
  70. I don't usually forget that I'm wearing my glasses, but other than that I experience the same things. first world problems for glasses wearers, i guess.

  71. Being at the beach and constantly having to clean the "sea spray" off of them.. argh!

  72. Mostly it sounds like your husband just needs to be smart enough to take your glasses off when you want to make-out or just be a little romantic. I dated many young ladies that wore glasses and I think everyone of them knew when I took off their glasses what I was after. Your glasses can actually be very sexy. You just need to start using them that way.

  73. How to Get an Ex Back
    My boyfriend broke up with me its been 4 days now. We have been dating sense he was 18 and I was 22. She has just know turned 21. We have been dating for 3 years and 2 and half months. Through the years we have had a really good relationship it was serious and we really wanted to be with each other forever. Of course we had are arguments but nothing too bad. I know that these past 3 months I had taken him for granted thinking he would always be there but was wrong. he told me he didn’t want to be in a relationship that he wanted to take time with himself. But he was still kissin me and hugging me and telling me that he will always love me and I hold a special place in her heart. I realized that right before he done this that I needed to get my act together but I guess was too late. I really love this boy there is something different about him he is the love of my life and I want us to have a better relationship then ever before and I wouldn’t ever take him for granted ever again I really do want to marry this boy and he wanted that too but idk how to get him back with out being clingy and desperate. Obviously he needs his space because he cheated on me and this time I really need help to bring him back and marry me, one day i was searching online and i saw a good testimony of how Dr Joy a real Africa spell caster help to restored back broken marriage, getting ex back, fix broken relationship. so i copy his email via??? joylovespell@gmail.com and told him all my problems so he ask me not to worry that my problem are solve that with 2 days, i will get him back which i believe in and put all my hope on and to my greatest notice, after the spell my boyfriend who broke up with me gave me a call to apology and feel so sorry for what he did so my dear ones that is how i got my boyfriend back with the help of Dr joy the real spell caster so also email him now on via joylovespell@gmail.com????

    Dr joy is a trust worthy spell caster and he will be of great help to you. I never believed in spell casting but After 4 years of marriage my husband left me because I lost my womb, and i was unable to give birth to children. I felt like my life has come to an end, and i almost committed suicide, i was emotionally down for a very long time, but thanks to this spell caster called Dr joy whom i met online after my friend Becky Ross told me how he also helped her to bring back her husband in less than 2 days. I believed her and decided to give Dr joy a try and i contacted him on his email joylovespell@gmail.com. and explained my problems to him. He laughed and told me that In less than 2 days, my Husband will come back to me again, and that he will restore my womb and i will give birth to children. At first i thought it was a joke but i took courage and believed as Dr joy has said and it did happen just as this Great spell caster said, My husband called me and was crying, begging for forgiveness. I forgive him and today i am so glad that all worries and problems has gone away, and we are even happier than before, another good news is that i am pregnant now, and very soon we will have our baby. Dr joy is really a gifted and a powerful spiritual man and i will not stop publishing him because he is a wonderful man. I advice you all If you have a problem and you are looking for a real and genuine spell caster to solve all your problems just Contact Dr joy on his email on joylovespell@gmail.com. because he will always help you to solve all problems. Once again thank you Dr joy. Thank you, thank you.
    you can also call him or add him on Whats-app: +2348100452479.
