For your glasses?

Nah. I was just weird. I moved every year to a new school until I was in the 7th grade. Always being the new kid made me a target. It was the rural south and 'who's yer deddy?' was a question I got asked a lot. We didn't have a local last name so I was an outcast.

No way. I got made fun of for other reasons.

Whatever

I'm sure it would have been glasses had I had them but no one knew I was legally blind until I was 10 and a school nurse realized I wasn't being a jerk when I said 'what chart?' and made me walk forward until I could see the big 'E'. I was like a foot away and she called my mom. She of course thought I just wanted attention and gave me crap all the way to the eye doctor at the mall. When he told her I couldn't see and had never been able to she started crying. It was cool being able to see stuff but I had so many weird ideas about the world that it took me a while to reprogram.
