I'm one of the "what an odd question" people, but I need to develop a system for ensuring that when I get up from the computer, I switch the computer glasses for the everything-else glasses. The computer glasses are still fairly new, and there are times I don't realize I've forgotten until I get outside and everything at a distance is way too fuzzy.

I'd just as soon not discover if I really can drive while wearing the computer glasses.

You can. I've been known to get halfway to where I'm going before realizing that I've got the wrong glasses on, and I'm pretty well up in diopters.

So far I haven't got much further than "out the door" wearing the computer glasses. (The other glasses are bifocals, for one thing.) But it's caused me to add "do I have the right glasses on?" to the "am I wearing clothes - shirt, pants, underwear, socks, shoes" and the "am I wearing the pants that _have my stuff in the pockets?_" questions.

The stuff-in-pockets question failing means that once I've locked the door behind me, I don't have the keys to get back in or to drive anywhere, so my destination abruptly changes to Fred-the-superintendent's apartment. This only happens (cross fingers) maybe once every year or two.

The clothes question has gotten easier to answer, paradoxically, now that my feet need a good bit more time and effort to put the socks and shoes onto, because that means doing so is a Major Production and not something I can just forget...
