had one of those days a couple of weeks ago
dropped off my car for an expensive repair
took a walk downtown
glasses fell out somewhere
apparently in the middle of the road
where they got run over
lenses survived
backup pair still in car being repaired
went to the backup of the backup pair
not the best
really not good if i had to identify a witness while wearing them
went home and sat on my couch in time to see
yeti the cat accidentally break my favorite vase
called my optometrist
who said the company that made my frames had been sold
they are discontinued and my lenses were custom made to fit in them
found a pair of the lenses online while squinting
now i await their arrival
as i track them all over the country
traveling in a bit of an illogical order
can’t wait to see where they land next
hopefully on my face.

Tracking my package so far:
From: Staten Island to Queens to Indianapolis to Detroit back to Indianapolis then back to Detroit and still not here, who knows where next?
I didn't have my glasses on....
