A good liar...

Anecdotes from childhood are often the best, kids after all do some pretty messed up things.

This story is about the time I lied to get glasses.

Basically as a confused, lost and excluded child in a family of three others who all donned spectacles I felt I too desperately needed a pair. What for I've no idea my eyesight is perfect and I knew I never wear them.

I had my heart set though and went out to the opticians and lied through my teeth when she asked me questions and answered my tests wrong. Frankly I think I'm a damn good liar if I can lie my way through an eye test and the next week have a swag new pair of specs.

Well played 12 year old Cate, well played.

P.s I lost those not long after... Oops.
