razzin' a phone 'mercial!

 

"Can ya see me now?
New eyeglasses!!!
Cream and brown, like buckeye caramels!
Happy birthday to me from the VA!!!
They actually arrived on time, but I just started wearing them.
Literally eye candy!!!"

 

That's what I posted on fb this afternoon, all caught up in making a change there!

Yes, it's out of focus, but it's supposed to be.

That's part of the joke!

 

Here's another joke: I cannot recall what phone company had that series of 'mercials.

All I remember is the catch phrase.

Guess that really wasn't what they were selling!

 

As for my glasses, it's just the frames that are new.

My sight hasn't changed for the last four or five years, so Dr. Urban just used the same prescription once more.

How about that?

When I checked out all the frames the Savannah VA would give me for free, I wanted to make sure I got something that looked very different from what I've had since the pandemic.

I almost ordered tortoise-shell frames, but then I saw these...

ah, yeah!

I think Cameo can speak for me about these!

 

"It's like candy (Candy), oh
You sure are sweet, sweet (Sweet)
You're so dandy (Dandy)
You're taking my appetite, but it's all right"

 

Back in the mid-80's, I danced every time "Candy" hit the turntable!

The music video always had me out of my seat, too!

That song was all over the radio, as it was a Top Ten hit.

Good times!

 

And now I have these lovely glasses to go with that memory...

and that song...

happy birthday to me!
