Random glasses thing

Oh yeah. You know you've had glasses for a while when you have a recurring nightmare where one of the following happens:

1. Your glasses break spontaneously in your hands/while on your face, getting cut by the glass optional
2. Someone knocks you over, your glasses fall off your face, and *crunch* someone steps on them
3. You lose them and can't find them, have to go somewhere (this is more or less the equivalent of the "go to school in just your underwear" dream)
 
Since I more or less consider them a part of my body this is a worrying concept, since it's more or less the equivalent of something happening to my eyes themselves. At a church picnic a few weeks ago I was a bit nervous that a kid I was playing with would hit me in the face with a ball and break them, since they'd break before my face did, which on the one hand is a good thing since it's not bone but also a pain since it would take a few days to replace them and in the meantime I'd have painful eye strain. In theory I could use the prescription sunglasses as a substitute, but for obvious reasons that might be awkward.

So that's the content of my anxiety dreams these days. Take from that what you will.
