prescription reading glasses

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

This morning Mari and I went to Kunitachi, a city in our 'hood with a name that seems to be comprised of bits of the larger cities. Tachikawa, to the west (home to Mari's IKEA) is 立川. Our area is Kokubunji, or 国分寺. Kunitachi is 国立. It has the first kanji from both of the larger cities.

Anyway, we got me some prescription reading glasses. I also got them tinted with the maximum blue-light-blocking capability. I needed the glasses (despite having prescription glasses suitable for reading a screen a meter away) because I'll now be reading actual books, like in the Before Times. The subject will of course be my Japanese studies.

(Much to my delight and surprise, I got a full seven hours of sleep the first night after I started using them. Let's see if that continues.)
