Flash of inspiration.

I noticed my glasses, which I had pushed up on my forehead so I could focus in on small print.

Ah-ha!

It's harder than I thought, to focus through my glass lenses onto my face.

That's why this is a bit out of focus.

A good learning experience though. I ended up using manual focus, and taking many frames, incrementing the focus ever so slightly, until I had this.

I'm not frowning here. I'm actually smiling. Squinting, in my attempt at seeing what's in front of me, but actually trying to smile.

Different!
