I do wear them all the time (no contacts), but I also never remember if someone else wears glasses.

Huh! I'm sure I will notice when I see you. But then, I'm also the person who notices people's haircuts a week later....

I knew Randy Quaid was a dick for the same reason Matt did. I think I also read something else about him acting batshit insane in another instance.

I was buying one pair of glasses every year at around $300 pop--which weren't covered by insurance. We used a flex spending plan for the LASIK, which was $2K. After 10 years without needing glasses (or prescription sunglasses or contacts) I think I'm ahead.

Yeah, I don't buy glasses every year, but it's still a financially sound decision -- if I won't need glasses again before I'm in my 50s. I assume I'd need to get glasses again around the time my parents went to bifocals, right?

lisa, how bad is your vision? Even if it's reallllly bad (I'm a -13!) there are other things you can get besides lasik. Though they're even more expensive, which doesn't solve your other problem. :)

I've had good and bad experiences in Sephora. Usually they ignore me (or eye me suspiciously), but I had a really good experience one time with a gayboy in Georgetown who ran all over the store putting lipgloss on his hand to find me just the right color.

I need to remember to buy glasses every year, because they are covered mostly by insurance. But I forget because I only wear them for close work.

I stand behind my suggestion that $70 in unappealing tights is better than having your LEG EXPLODE.

The tights look just fine. They're just expensive as hell (the ones that were probably the right constriction were $150). Oh, and putting them on was tiring and very painful. I see the doc Friday. I hope he'll have a fixy thing.

I don't go in there any more. The salespeople are either mean to me, or seem to consciously avoid me.

Maybe it's because they're French--where it's not so much "the customer is always right" but rather "why are you bothering me?"

I've never had a problem at Sephora, but I usually tell most sales people to leave me alone so I might not be the best judge of service.

Unappealing was meant to cover expensive and hard to put on, regardless of appearance.

HA!

I just had to explain my "I don't much like people" stance to someone.

My main problem with Sephora is that I can't get their employees to understand the principle of Clinique's Black Honey but less sheer and more shiny. I've been looking for that lip colour for months, and I've asked more than a few salespeople, and they keep handing me pink stuff. I'm even willing to settle for less shiny since I have an overgloss that's worthy of a porn star, but even then? Not much help. And I can't take the perfume well enough to look for it myself.

I did go in for some makeup tips once, and had a chick make up half my face. It looked really stupid.

Yeah, the LASIK doesn't correct that problem.
