Pen Glasses
I visited Bess in Madison a week or so ago, and somewhere during the visit one of the ear-hangers on my reading glasses snapped off. I think I have about 10 pair of reading glasses with the ear hanger snapped off.
Bess had the clever idea of taping a pen to the frame to create a replacement ear hanger. Having been a carpenter who lost many a pencil behind my ear, I could immediately see the practicality of this.
Pen Glasses
So here’s my first attempt. The pen is hard to use as a pen, as it turns out, because the glasses flop down and get in the way.
What an invention. You do have to watch that you don’t poke your eye with the pen. A pen does make for a very comfortable ear hanger, and you do have a pen handy. Of course you can’t see to write, but then you can’t have everything.
