You're looking for your glasses which you swear you put down on your computer desk somewhere, but you can't find them... so you think hey, maybe I'm wearing them. So you put your hand up to your face with perhaps a little too much velocity, and somehow manage to simultaneously poke yourself in the eye, scratch your cornea and slap yourself in the face at the same time.
In retrospect, the hand configuration that this maneuver requires is a tricky one to master. And to think I just stumbled on it out of pure dumb luck... what's chances?
I just need a couple of nights to catch up from this massive sleep deficit, and then I'll be sane, I think... I love this part of parenting, really I do. Really. Um.
Laughing out loud about the "hey - maybe I'm WEARING them!" I've lost my sunglasses before, right on top of my head. But the eyeglasses that you need to actually SEE with, I thought only old people lost those. :)

LOL
I've never "put out an eye" but I have been none to remind my girls not to touch my glasses because
I NEED MY GLASSES to FIND my glasses
