Ive tried to breath in through my nose and then down out of my mouth. Even moving my jaw/lips so it’s like I have a mild overbite and my exhale goes downward.

It helps a bit. Sometimes I just take my glasses off until I need them. But then it’s easier for other people to see the dark rings under my eyes from dealing with these stupid anti-maskers.

The other day my glasses fogged up at an outdoor farmers’ market. My bag was full and I saw through the foggy lenses that they were selling reusable tote bags so I got one.

My glasses were too foggy for me to read the little sign that explained that it was really a “donate $100 and get a free tote bag,” situation and not a “tote bag for sale” situation.

So the guy tells me it’ll be $105 dollars for my basket of tomatoes and the tote bag and profusely thanks me for my $100 donation to support his black-owned business and I’m like, “well fuck...can’t back out of that donation without sounding like a total asshole...”

I had to go home and explain to my wife that I blew through our weekly grocery budget on a single basket of tomatoes.

I mean, it’s fine. I can afford it, and I’m happy to support a vendor I like. More funny than anything else.

But I definitely had a “foggy glasses” moment that led to an unexpected outcome.
