‘I was walking down the street when my prescription ran out.’ steven wright

Standard

it’s national eyewear day

so I’ll be celebrating

by scheduling my annual eye doctor appointment 

life is good

as far as I can see.

until I get my new glasses

and then things might look different. 

‘the reason things have or have not happened in my life is because I did not have glasses on.’

in the blink of an eye.

Standard

 

how many times do you blink per year?

a. between 3.5-5.1 million

b. between 5.2-7.1 million

c. between 7.2-9.8 million

if you guessed b, you are right.

(sent to me by my eye doctor, i’ve never really considered it before,

but it may be useful one day if i’m in a world championship trivia final)

“there can be as much value in the blink of an eye as in months of rational analysis.”
