Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Zenni is the cheapest, I think. I've also gotten glasses from Coastal Contacts. And Warby Parker, cheaper than a glasses store but not exactly cheap.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I do think a lawyer is a good idea, especially if you are an executor.

I second this, and if my sister were here she'd third it. Settling my mom's estate was a real headache with her stepdaughters circling like vultures. (They got nuthin'.)

sj, I've gotten glasses from both Zenni and Coastal and I've been happy with them. Zenni is probably cheaper, but Coastal might be better if you have a really strong prescription (+8 or more).

I need about seven more hours in this day.

Thanks, I look into Zenni; my prescription isn't that strong.

I've used Zenni for a few years for my bifocals and I've been very happy with my glasses. I think I'm on my third pair from them. And, even with the complicated prescription, the glasses are affordable enough I'm thinking of getting another pair just so I can change up my look.

Once again, none of my highly educated colleagues can make the WebEx work.

I picked up breakfast from McDonald's for the first time in ages this morning. My hot cakes & sausage came without sausage. Disappointing.

Dang, my right hand feels like I punched somebody with poor form. I'm pretty sure I did not.

Perhaps you blacked out and punched the person who failed to give you sausage. Totally legit.

I just paid off my car. Whew. Now I am broke until payday, but if I hadn't gone on and done it, I would've spent that money on something stupid like shoes or food.

That's a good story, Zen. I could have and for all I know I did.

Look at you, shedding debt all over the place! I'm so impressed!

BTW, my widget communication issue got straightened out. He had someone not telling him what he needed to know (which did affect his answer to me, that just wasn't clear from his original response). Final answer - widgets are not ready now but they will be soon. Which is good enough.

I think food is not stupid? Regardless, congrats on paying off your car!
