I always sneeze when I'm first exposed to bright light. Pale, light-blue-eyes, natural redhead. My family used to use me as party trick: "Watch this, watch this. Hey, Connie, come out here! Watch this, she'll sneeze."
Oh, smacked in the noggin with a 2x4 wrapped in velvet. Yeah, that's what it felt like.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I'm glad I got a good pair of Rx sunglasses a couple years ago-- I have them in a hard-sided case that is always found in one of my handbags, so they don't get lost. I was also surprised that LensCrafters has a nice selection of fashionable-looking sunglass frames.

Ah yes, good old Autosomal dominant Compelling Helio-Ophthalmic Outburst syndrome. All the women in my family have it -- it's hilarious when we all walk out of a restaurant together, take three steps, pause, sneeze, and keep going. It's always perfectly synchronized.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Oh, gods. Y'all really should film that. Please?

The only times I've "lost" my glasses are the times when I carelessly toss them someplace while changing, and then when I go to put them on again, realize I'm too blind to see where the glasses landed.
You'd think I'd learn.

I had a pair of Ray Ban Wayfarers rebuilt with sunglass lens in my prescription. They live in my car, since my regular glasses won't darken in the car due to the winshield (I have Transitions lenses).

My dad, sister, and I all have that reaction to bright sun, too! It's particularly strong when coming out of a dark movie theater.

I lose my glasses like Kathy, when half asleep. Once I couldn't find them for a whole day, though. I remember reading the board here with my eyes about one inch from the screen.

My son tends to do it (the sneezing thing). He's reddish-blonde.
(Just had one of those moments, typing that above sentence, where I was like, "Oh my god, I have a son! Hey wait, I also have a four year old and I'm married and I'm 35. How the hell did all this happen?")

Now tagless for your comfort.
bon bon, that's where I got mine! They were Rx originally until after I got lasik. Then I put the original lenses back in.
DH has Rx Ray Ban Wayfarers and loves them.
