Getting Older

When you're young, you don't put much thought into things being any other way.  You don't think about paying a mortgage, the daily commute, or waking up with the same aches and pains every day.

Yesterday, I finally threw in the towel and bought my first pairs of reading glasses.  I'm not wearing Coke bottle glasses, just 1.25 magnification cheaters.  I'm not precisely sure what made me start playing with the magnifiers at CVS yesterday but I'm glad I did.

My eyes felt better after a couple hours of reading than the normally do.  The print in my books went from regular TV to HD.  They seem to be helping on my computer monitor at work as well.

I guess getting older isn't that bad, aside from paying a mortgage, the daily commute, or waking up with the same aches and pains every day.
