Seeing things in a new light

Okay, so…. Due to the fact that I now have medical insurance (including vision and dental) I was able to replace my glasses. Glasses that I snapped in half on the day of my interview for my present employment and that I’ve had for four years. After numerous queries to my oh-so helpful Em about insurance, and where to buy glasses… I bought some fairly expensive ones that look 75% just like my old glasses. How do you know they’re expensive??? Well they’re Armani Exchange. What exactly does that mean? That means that these glasses have a little A/X logo on the stem/earpiece. And yes. They look almost exactly like my walmart glasses. I like them well enough. I’m just glad I don’t have to wear contacts everyday anymore. In other news, the job is going very well. I’ve assimilated fairly seamlessly into the work environment, and I enjoy the small tasks that I’m assigned to do every day. It is a mostly autonomous position in a central location in the office. I can see out through our office door and watch people as the enter and exit the building. I work with 9 other people, with a very generous mix of types. As Annie would say, “I think I’m gonna like it here!”
