I usually find it hard to buy or choose a pair of sunglasses for me. Maybe it's because of my facial features. But today, I just broke my favorite pair. The worst part is, I bought it from another country... and for sure, it'll take me a while to find another pair that'll suit me. Argh!!! I hate myself for being clumsy. Did this happen to you? Breaking or loosing something, that you're sure will be a hard find in the future?

Sorry to hear about it, Kryzell. I have a similar experience. I too have difficulty finding the right shape of sunnies that suit my facial contour, shape and everything. I love sunglasses that look like headbands when you put them on top of your head. But I seldom find them let alone a pair that compliments my face shape. And to have it broken was really regrettable. But it was a baby who broke it.

Yes, it's hard to loose something that you know you'll have a great difficulty looking for it's replacement. But since it's a baby who broke it, you can't rant that much. As for me... it's my own clumsiness that broke it, nad I obviously have myself to blame, argh!

Exactly, and most of the time those items that are difficult to find are the ones most vulnerable to damage or lose, don't you think so?

It's hard for me to find sunglasses to suit, as I have quite wide eyes and most of them are too narrow. Anyhow, a few years back I got a "freebie" pair with She magazine. They were tortoiseshell effect, very retro a la 1950s screen Siren. They suited me to a tee and I wore them everywhere. Until (sob) I went out for the day and left them in a pub! I called back but it was too late - they'd gone. Ever since, I've been looking for a pair the same - but none of them suit me as they're all too DARN NARROW. So yes, I do know the heartache of knowing that "this is the one", only to have some damn floozie in a bar whip them away from you ... Broken hearts or broken sunglasses - they're all the same.

actually.. it's past 12 to where I am right now. Just staring at my poor pair of sunnies.. hoping there's a way for me to repair them (although loosing hope, seeing the broken pieces, sigh!) Somehow you made me smile with the line... nroken hearts or broken sunglasses. Yep, I am so broken hearted right now...
