Have I ever told you guys that I sleep with my glasses on? Well, it’s true. I do. I don’t mean I fall asleep with them on, I mean, I knowingly, willingly roll over and go to sleep still wearing them. I will often awaken in the mornings with them still on my face.
Sometimes, I will wake up and take them off. I usually stick them under a pillow. I used to just place them on the bed next to me, but Ruby (the beagle) had severe separation anxiety as a pup, and she chewed up an entire pair. After that, I started putting them in the nightstand drawer (into which she managed to wiggle her beagle head and steal and eat a second pair. She nibbled on a third pair, but they survived). I had to quit wearing wire frames because they got all jacked up and bent sleeping in them.
I like going to sleep with them on. I like waking up in them. My gramma always thought I was goofy, but she said her mom used to take a nap with her glasses on when gram was a kid. My niece does it too. Maybe it’s hereditary. It’s not that I am lazy. It causes me less discomfort to sleep in a pair of glasses than a pair of contacts. Contacts are like rubber cement in my eyeballs when I sleep in them. (I used to love to sniff rubber cement when I was a kid. Ok, I still do.) It drives Annie’s mom nuts. Her dad was an optician. She is horrified by how I treat my glasses. HA! The pair I have now would actually be in great shape if I hadn’t sat on them when I was getting dressed one day. I took them off to put my shirt on, then turned around and sat down to put on sneakers. Squash. They are only a little cattywhompus.
So now you know another amazing tidbit about K-Finn, Ghetto $uperstar.
