Today, I went to see the "Cirque du Soleil" at the Albert Hall. It was amazing, apparently. Of course I wouldn't know, because I left my glasses at the hotel, and was sitting at the very back row. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went to a theme park with my friends. I was excited to ride the rollercoasters, but just as we were about to get on the biggest one, I realized I'd had left my glasses in the car. I can't see shit without them, but I decided to go on the ride anyway. I spent the entire time screaming in terror while my friends laughed, while I couldn't see a thing. FML
Today, I went to a concert. One of my favorite bands was performing, and I'd had the ticket for seven months, with a great seat for the show. It was all going perfectly, that is until a guy twice my height sat in front of me. FML
Today, I brought home my 3D glasses after a movie. I had a laugh about it until I realized that I put my $100 sunglasses in the recycle box outside of the theatre instead. FML
Today, it was the concert of my life. I had bought tickets the minute they went on sale, and I'd anxiously waited until the concert date. Thirty minutes before the show, my friend got so drunk that we weren't allowed in, and I was stuck babysitting her all night in the hotel, completely missing the show. FML
Today, I drove 150 miles to see one of my favorite singers in concert. Before I got out of the car I checked to make sure I had the tickets. Did I have the tickets? Yes. Were they for today's concert? Nope. FML
Today, I got on a two hour train ride to go to a concert. I had been so caught up in handling the train tickets that halfway to the concert, I realized I had left the concert tickets on my dresser. FML
Today, my friend and I drove three hours to attend a U2 concert. We had been psyched about the tickets for weeks because they were awesome seats (my early Christmas present). After a long drive, we get to the venue and I realize in horror that I left tickets at home, on my desk, three hours away. FML
Today, after I bought front-row tickets thanks to six months of saving, it was finally showtime. The person in front of me turned out to be really, really tall and wore a cowboy hat the entire show. Every photo I took looks like I paid $300 to watch the back of a hat. FML
Today, I got a once-in-a-lifetime chance to see Hamilton. My friend kept complaining and asking very loudly why it was "just about that one guy". We got kicked out. FML
Today, I went to a concert for the first time in 5 years. I got all dressed up and even ended up hanging out with the band. The night came to a screeching halt when I got a migraine and ended up in the ER vomiting non-stop. I was in the hospital all night. FML

Maybe they only need glasses for long distance. Hence why it would be easy to forget them if they don't wear them often. I only wear mine for school.

What If there are holes in the glasses? maybe 4,000! That's the amount of holes in Blackburn, Lancashire! And though the holes are rather small, we have to count them all. Then we'll know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall! I'm surprised no one made that reference...

no, he meant, 'nerd,' because OP wants to go to Cirque something or other, which is really boring and stupid. Only nerds are interested in that s**t.

That would be true, but those only work on us "seeing folk"

Umm no, they sell ones that can be focused.

Depending how nearsighted OP is, binoculars could be useless. Also, I have yet to see them being sold anywhere at performance halls I've been to.

The Royal Albert hall doesn't have them, or at least I've never seen them there

No lie, I did this same exact thing when I went to see cirque du soleil a couple of years ago, except I was near the stage so I got to see the amazing show. Sorry op :c

I hate it when that happens, leaving your glasses behind. You can go so far before you realise everything's blurry, especially if you're in a rush. I feel for you there OP. Bad times.

Not all places have mini-binoculars. Albert Hall, apparently, is one of them.
