    Why not order glasses online - Zenni and Goggles4U are much, much, much, much less expensive, even for me with my massively strong and complex prescription!

    Honestly, I just didn't know that was an option. :/ I got a ride to LensCrafters since I absolutely cannot drive without my glasses, especially since my area is being hit with a storm right now, and they had my lenses in stock.

    When you pick these up, ask for a copy of your prescription, and a measurement of your pupillary distance, which you will need to order online. Then you can order your self a pair for less than a tenth of that price, and have spares you can have just in case.

    I just wanted to update everyone - I had an interview today for a second job that would allow for VERY flexible hours. I'm excited, and it sounds like they are excited to have me. It's most likely minimum wage, at least at first, but the flexibility of the hours will make it worth it...plus, I did NOT want to quit my current job, which I absolutely love.

    Well, that sounds like good news! Congratulations! I'm so glad for you.
