Just one of those things...

rivkaThe earpiece of my glasses snapped off this morning while I was talking with a client.
They haven't been fitting well for a while - the earpiece has been loose and wobbling. Tightening the screw didn't help - that wasn't where it was loose. So my glasses kept twisting askew on my face, and I kept fiddling them back into position. Until today.
I reached up reflexively to fiddle my glasses into position, and the lenses came right away without the right earpiece. I fumbled for it, trying not to lose track of my sentence, but there are some things you can't do without losing your savoir faire.
"It's still behind your ear," my client said. I plucked the earpiece from where it perched uselessly atop my right ear, set it on the desk, and went on with the interview.
This evening's exciting last-minute entertainment: a trip to the optometrist. Maybe they can be fixed, but somehow it seems unlikely.
