A real lady always keeps a pair of Groucho Marx glasses in her purse. Because you just never know when you might need 'em. This pair was a special surprise from Hannah, someone who obviously knows me too well. Another person who knows me perhaps too well recently described my sense of humor as being very "Groucho Marxy," so it was great timing that these glasses arrived in my life when they did. This is what I look like on my way to work, jamming to sweet tunes on my mint green headphones... and by sweet tunes I mean mostly very sad songs by Nina Simone.
