That's Miss Elton to you

After two years of working in an office job, where I actually got to wear clothes and makeup every day, I recently returned to working out of my house, which means that I've immediately manifested my inner troll, spending my days hunched over my laptop in my gloomy living room in my mismatched pajamas, my hair looking like Robert Blake's Cockatoo (Are we tired of "bedhead" het?  I'm going to coin a phrase right now for this look: let's call it the  "cockadoo.")  Well, within two week's I'd landed myself a cripling headache that lasted for SIX days.  I tried every remedy, even visiting the dentist for xrays to see if I might have an undiscovered abcess.  But I don't.

Turns out I have an ocular migraine, caused by my newfound freedom to sit in front of a computer screen ten to twelve hours a day (several hours of which, ironically, have recently involved googling "headache" and "migraine").  Must be why trolls scowl so fiercely--all that eye strain from sitting in the dark.  So on Wednesday I'm going to Lenscrafters, where I'm going to get a special eye exam that generates a perscription solely for use at the computer.  The question now is, what type of nerd chic do I want to project with my new single-purpose glasses--given that no one will ever see them but me?  I'm thinking Elton John.  Rhinestones, definitely rhinestones.  I wonder if I can find a rhinestone pocket protector to go with?  Which makes me wonder, by the by, why pajamas even have pockets...?

The pockets on pajamas are for your compact and lip palette--OBVIOUSLY. (Okay, I may be slightly vain ...)
