Garfield Mar 2021 12:27pm, 25 Mar 2021 15,364 posts	0 Garfield It's always fun putting glasses on when I have contacts already in my eyeballs, then wonder why things look weird!
Badger Mar 2021 12:41pm, 25 Mar 2021 13,687 posts	0 Badger I put mine in the wrong eyes once. Left is -6 and right is -8.5 so it was extremely disorienting until I worked out what I must have done.
Garfield Mar 2021 12:44pm, 25 Mar 2021 15,365 posts	0 Garfield Ah, I hate it when that happens...mine are 3.25 and 4.25 - not quite as bad as yours as my right eye has slowly improved. Still enough to make things a little weird!

Diogenes Mar 2021 12:46pm, 25 Mar 2021 58,682 posts	0 Diogenes I seem to recall someone putting both lenses in the same eye, can't remember if that was something I saw here?
Garfield Mar 2021 12:48pm, 25 Mar 2021 15,367 posts	0 Garfield Possibly!
Velociraptor Mar 2021 12:49pm, 25 Mar 2021 52,011 posts	0 Velociraptor I've put two lenses in the same eye before now. And put my lenses in the wrong eyes, which is just a bit weird because the difference between them is small and I undercorrect both by different amounts to minimise the impact on my near vision while having adequate distance vision.

Carpathius Mar 2021 9:23am, 26 Mar 2021 20,672 posts	0 Carpathius I just picked up the (dark green) colander to wash it, and the (dark green) lettuce we were supposed to have with last night's dinner fell out.

This morning I went to charge my kindle and instead found myself trying to charge my coffee mug. It was my third coffee of the day as well, clearly not strong enough!

=============

I was just drying my hair after a shower, I switched the hairdryer on and suddenly the bedroom was plunged into darkness, the hairdryer wasn't working either. Great, the electrics have just tripped out.

I find a torch, go to the fuse box but nothing has tripped - turns out I pressed the light switch instead of the hairdryer 'on' button.
