Visual Precision
Wednesday, October 4th, 2006 07:46 pmThe new glasses have arrived, and they are a marvel of lightness and clarity. After forty years of tortoise shell and/or brown frames (to match the hair) these are half-framed in silver (to match the hair). And did I mention light? I hardly know they're on (except that, y'know, I can actually see my hand in front of my face). My glasses used to be quarter inch thick glass weighing approximately three tons; they put grooves on the side of my head, pulled my ears out of alignment, and left bruises on the bridge of my nose.
They're doing wonderful things with plastics, nowadays.
Mozart has been a cuddlecat today. He's taken to jumping into my lap for a cuddle after I've finished eating dinner. Today, I could hardly get him to decamp when it was time to rise and Do Stuff, and when I came back to the computer, he was immediately in my lap, curling himself into an impossibly small curl, for a seventeen pound cat, and slept there while I typed through his whiskers and ruffled pages in his ears, for more than an hour. My lap was numb by the time he stirred, sttttrrrreeeettttccchhhhed, and hopped down to go spend some quality time with the rocking chair.
SRM orders have been filled. Writing has been accomplished. Laundry has been finished. Haven't quite made it to the dishes, yet. That's next on the agenda, I guess.
