Go Big or Go Home.

“You know what they say. Go big or go home,” Kim, the optician at Camino Eye Care, told me. “Be bold. It’ll make you look younger.” 

Kim is about my age, but doesn't look it, so I said, “Okay.” 
​
Here’s the result: 

​I’ve spent years picking out frames based on how well they disappeared on my face. So this is big step. Almost as big as these glasses. 
​
Every time I look in the mirror, for just a moment I think of the kid from The Sandlot. 

Yikes.

​When Kim said I'd look younger, this isn't quite what I had in mind.
