Getting Old

My apologies for the lack of posts today. I've been busy doing real world things, including a visit to the eye doctor. As expected, I needed to get a new prescription for my glasses, which included a need for bifocals. I am now officially an old man!

In any case, I'll try to catch up on my missed posts tomorrow, including a fuller report on OSRCon.

  2. At least they aren't trifocals. Or maybe trifocals are cooler. Hmm.

  3. Welcome to the club!

    I've had bifocals for 3-4 years now -- they make reading a pleasure again.

  4. Had the same experience recently at the eye doctor, vaguely horrifying.

    Must be all those poorly printed 1st edition modules... ;)

  5. Just think of the head tilted/over the glasses disdainful looks you'll be able to give with those new bifocals! An often overlooked benefit of old age...

  6. I've been telling damned kids to get off my lawn since I was 16. But then I'm a misanthropic curmudgeon.

  9. You're not old until you start talking about how you used to walk uphill both ways and were thankful.

    I was rarely thankful.

    From what I see here, you've got nothing to worry about.
