Getting Older

eye_glasses.jpgThere are several ways you can tell that you’re getting old. One of the things for me was having to start wearing reading glasses a couple of years ago … well I think it was a couple of years back … it’s hard to remember such things when you’re getting older.

I know that whether or not you wear glasses isn’t always down to aging, many young people need glasses for various reasons, but the optometrist I dealt with told me in my case it was all down to aging eyes not being able to focus like they used to. Sadly I now think I need stronger glasses.

Still … that doesn’t mean that I’m getting older … but maybe … just maybe … the fact that I left the radio studio a few minutes ago to get my glasses … went to my desk … and came back without them could be a clue. The fact that I almost did it twice may well be confirmation.
