The current […]

At some point Wednesday afternoon/night, I lost my very favorite pair of tortoise folding ray ban wayfarers. They are a couple of years old and are not of much value (scratched lenses, missing a decal, signs of harsh love). I’ve had them for 5 years and I just can’t let ’em go. As a reward […]
