glasses

Monday, June 25th, 2007

last year i stopped two random people to ask them about their glasses – and that’s random with a capital R. One was a stranger Lululemon, and the other at circus school. In any case, they had both bought their glasses from the same store – Optic Zone. Now, i have had the same glasses […]
