Une ville, une campagne, de loin c'est une ville et une campagne, mais à mesure qu'on s'approche, ce sont des maisons, des arbres, des tuiles, des feuilles, des herbes, des fourmis, des jambes de fourmis, à l'infini. Tout cela s'enveloppe sous le nom de campagne.

Blackbeard (Left) and Hody Jones (Right) This doesn’t really fit with the alliance theme of the week, but it came to my mind.  More villain stuff did as well, but I’m going to save that for another week.  This is about two general categories that I’ve seen: Short-Sighted– These villains have a simple goal with no other thoughts beyond achieving it.  They might have a great plan to claim victory,…

Seven days ago my eye specialist said I can just wear my glasses all the time, not just for reading. "I kind of already do," I say. "Especially if my eyes are tired. But sometimes I take them off for cycling, and definitely when it's raining."

Today it's trickling when I'm leaving, so with my front door's keys in my hand, I slip them off and stuff them in my bike bag, next to my other stuff.

At the blood donation centre, I realise that's where they still are when I get to the questionnaire. "Shit," I say to the woman next to me. "I forgot my glasses."

She offers me her glasses, which she isn't using. They're not as strong as my eyes need, but they do. I joke that I started on a +1 too. I finish my survey fairly quickly, and return her glasses with a thank you.

It's a wonderful thing when the person you're growing old with is far-sighted, too.

7 Things You Should Never Say To Someone Who Wears Glasses

"How many fingers am I holding up?"

The two sides in battle inside my "brilliant mind". It's the battle in everyone's mind when they feel that this specific person has a crush on you. Or like you. 

I talk about my so-called-crush, he looks away (So-called-crush). We talk about his crush, he chatters on and on and on and on and on. He asks to take a picture with you. Have a frown on his face when you're not around. But brings up topics about his oh-so-loved one. 

So... does he like me? What if we're just doing the same thing? Pretending to have a crush on someone else... What if he's not and he's just a really caring guy. What if it's true... What if it's not? What if you ask him and it's not true. What if he says it's true!? What the hell do I do?! Well, why the hell don't I ask him?!.....Because you don't want to ruin a good friendship. Pfffffsh. Friends. That's all we'll ever be.

Yes, they all say that it's better that you're friends than be the crushee he can't talk to. Well guess what, it's not easy being the one who takes in all his bull shit about his dream-girl, being so utterly careful not to let your true feelings about him slip by. And no matter how close you are, even you'll know that it's hopeless. Especially when this guy is so Far-sighted. Can't seem to see the one who actually cares about him more. It's amazing how we can all think about the ones we like all day, when they can't even seem to remember us, or have us run pass through their mind even for a split second.
