What happened? Must have passed out on the couch while watching the news. I had meant to finish watching the news, catch Michelle Kwan on Jay Leno, then head over to the chat room... best laid plans, and all that.

I'm still pissed about my glasses, and will be taking a trip this morning to hopefully get them repaired. I don't have a backup pair that are worth anything (my prescription changed radically after my diabetes was discovered, so these are the only pair I can use to see anything). Despite the fact they are broken, I am amazed at how well balanced they are. With only one arm, I would have thought the glasses would rest lopsided on my head. They are staying reasonably straight across the bridge of my nose. That's a testament to their light weight and balance. The arms, I guess, were simply used to keep the glasses from falling off my face, and didn't have much to do with the balance. I've figured out why they broke... When I take my glasses off, I don't fold them and put them in a case... I just put them down with the arms still extended. When I pick them up, I generally do so by grabbing one of the ear-pieces and lifting. Over time, the stress on the metal joint (where the arm meets the glasses) must have been too much.

I'm still sleepy enough that I could fall back asleep if I stop now, so I will.
