Last Saturday, I was sitting at breakfast and was writing an email or something like that when a spring hinge on my glasses popped. I didn’t have a decent, unbroken pair of glasses to repair as a backup. As you can imagine, it was both terribly annoying and an unforeseen expense. A Google search told me about an eyeglass repair shop in Sunnyside/Woodside.
Thankfully, they were able to willing and able to fix my glasses, so I made a trip to the Sunnyside/Woodside border the other day. The train was faster than the bus, and I had to make sure I could get to the shop before they closed. I desperately needed my glasses. I’m literally blind without them. And I needed them fixed before heading downtown for a Groover showcase at Baker Falls in the Lower East Side.
I took a Manhattan-bound local train and transferred upstairs for a Manhattan-bound 7 at Roosevelt Avenue when I came across Tom Patti‘s Passage, which turns some of the surrounding buildings into a prismatic, hallucinatory fever dream of sorts.
