We all know that things aren't always what they seem. For instance, lots of people think that guys who wear glasses have more brains than brawn. But this sticker from Tools Plus that arrived with the husband's new sander or whatever suggests otherwise. He saved it for me because he knew I'd like it. And I do! The bespectacled mop top of a cartoon man seems to be saying, I don't always sit around reading Lord of the Rings; I can work a power saw better than the more manly Property Brother. Just don't tell my mom.
I too received a mailbox surprise associated with eyewear. A pair of children's sunglasses! Now, I didn't know they were for children. I ordered them from Zulily without questioning that small, heart-shaped sunnies with tiny pineapples printed on the back would be intended for anyone older than ten.
But once I realized that they wouldn't fit on my face, I decided to wear them around my neck -- as a necklace! Yes, some wire and rainbow beads later I had a one-of-a-kind accessory that looked as if it'd come from a claw machine or -- where else? -- a Jersey shore tee shirt shack.
