Hola, Internet. What’s the skinny? I got some new sunglasses this weekend, my 3rd pair of the same kind.

Pretty sweet, eh? I dropped the first pair (the ones from my wedding) in the Pacific Ocean. And the second pair…. also in the Pacific Ocean. These I aim to keep. Of course, I meant to keep both other pairs, too. C’est la vie, as the say in Pair-ee.

I’m usually very good with sunglasses. I’ve never really “lost” a pair. I know exactly where each and every set throughout my life have gone. I dropped one pair of Oakleys in the water on White Water Rampage at Great America (that’s in Gurnee!), one pair of Ray Bans in Lake Geneva (that’s in Wisconsin!) and another pair of Oakleys in Salt Creek (that’s in Illinois!).

Lesson? I am not allowed to wear sunglasses near any body of water over 16 ounces.

Wish me luck.
