you know it's time for a real job when...

Your glasses break and you don't have insurance to cover the cost of new glasses. So you resign yourself to using half of a popsicle stick, a rubber band, and a twisty tie to hold your glasses together until you can save up enough money for new ones.

P.S. After this little embarrassment, we grabbed some superglue that I had in the closet. So, no, he is not walking around looking like this. We are crossing our fingers that the superglue will hold for a few days.
