Hey everyone! Remember that time when I smashed my glasses all crazy by accidentally sitting on them when my computer's power cord almost started a fire? Also, remember how it was 80 degrees two days ago and now it's snowing? Well, that's beside the point, but I thought I should bring it up...CRAZY UTAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

Anyway, back to the glasses. So I've been thinking that I kind of want to get a new pair of glasses that actually look horizontal on my face and don't give me a crazy headache, but I also don't want to spend a gazillion dollars and don't have eye coverage. But then yesterday I was reading a fav blog and found a website that has a pretty good deal on glasses and you put in your own prescription info (which is good because I think mine might be expired...) and free quick shipping!

Welcome into my life, Spex Club! This website has lots of fun styles that are all $88 and you can even try them online virtually! Very fun to do while I am sitting in my class TAing :) So, I'm thinking you all should give me an opinion on which style you like best!

1. The Apprentice

2. The Avery (thought I'd share a funny picture of me trying them on....or maybe a few.....)

3. The Parker

4. The Jesse 

Are you getting sick of this, because I'm totally not!

5. The Hobbs

6. The Andy (hahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahahahhaha)

7. The Dane

So, what do you think? You should totally try this on yourself, it's so fun! Just go to Spexclub.com :)
