It was actually kind-of nice today. Still in the same weird weather pattern though, which will hopefully break in the next day or so. There was even a brief tornado warning out in the western part of the state -- go figure.
In other news, the side of my glasses broke so I had to go to the eye dr.'s and drop them off to be fixed. Both sides need to be replaced, which will cost about $30. Unfortunately, I have an eye exam scheduled for Nov. 11th -- which, if I had known it sooner, I would have duct-taped the side and waited to see if I needed a new Rx before spending $30 on a repair. I know I sound cheap but for me, new glasses cost about $500-600 (lenses and frame), so $30 is kind-of a big deal. I'm not sure if I will need new ones or not but if I do, I'm definitely going for a heavier, stronger frame -- maybe one designed for sports. This pair hasn't been bad and I like them well enough but the same side has broken twice now (the first time I was lucky and it was still under warranty.) Hopefully though, I can get by for another year or so with my old ones.
