It seems as if old age has finally caught up with me and I find myself in need of glasses. The optician told me so.
I could let myself feel down about this but no! I have decided that I will embrace my eye sight assisted future (if lack of depth perception allows me to) and use it to reinvent myself! Glasses give me the opportunity for a new look and a fresh start. But which look? There are so many. Which one should I choose?

Stuart is an accident prone Englishman who has been living in the Netherlands since 2001. Even his move to the country was an unintentional accident, the result of replying to a cryptic job advertisement he found one day in a local British magazine. Since then he has learned to love the Dutch (so much so that he married one of them) and now calls the country home. He started the blog Invading Holland in 2006 as a place to share his strange stories of language misunderstandings, cultural confusions and his own accident prone nature.

Hahahaha excellent! Too bad you’re not wearing the needed accessories, but i believe you can pull it off! That’s quick by the way. When I buy glasses, it usually takes two weeks and i don’t even need jampotglazen :-P.
AstridQK – Welllll… drawing the cartoon took me a lot longer then planned so I may or maynot have already ordered the glasses before posting :p
The Dutch ones really do make you look Dutch maybe they will help with the language too!! :P
Those are a LOT of personalities to deal with!!
