I was heartbroken.

All spring and summer long, I had searched for my beloved blu blockers. Well, knockoff blu blockers that I bought at Honest Ed’s last year for a dollar… I can’t seem to find anywhere in Toronto which stocks the real thing.

But last night, as I grabbed my baby blue micro-suede Members Only jacket before taking a trip to Carter’s Ice Cream, I felt something in my pocket — my blu blockers! (Kind of strange, inside a blue jacket to boot).

Finally, my blue-tinged world would come to an end… when I put on the glasses, BAM, the world explodes into a spectrum of brilliant orange and yellow. The sun is going down? Not in my world bud.

The thing is, you would think having yellow-tinted vision in the summer would be the most uncomfortable thing in the world, but that’s just not the case. I find the amber tinge relaxing, and just like waking up from a splendid dream, the worst part of my blueblocker experience is when I return to the drab world of regular vision.

Did you know that wearing blublockers are actually good for your vision?

Now that I think about it, I would love to get a pair of the real deal… I think these official Black Nylon Aviator style might just be the ticket.

Oh yes, and mandatory hilarious YouTube link is here. This guy loves his blus more that me!
