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 would've spent that money on something stupid like shoes or food.

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

So, CJ's car is officially kaput. The shop said we can leave it there until we figure out if we can sell it, trade it in (push/pull/drag), or donate it. KCD is headed out of town for a few days, so CJ will be able to borrow his car for the short term. BUT we need to figure how to get him another vehicle. My credit is improving, but I still can't get a loan. CJ doesn't make enough to even qualify with a co-signer, though he is applying for other jobs that are closer to home. He is going to talk with KCD as they go to the airport today.

Just so frustrating. Six months from now, things would probably be better for me to be able to help him and for him to be able to help himself. I had my car in the shop today for an oil change and check up and while there are things it needs, there is nothing critical which is great. I had been afraid it would need all kinds of things.

I am having breakfast in a café in the Paris casino . My savory crepe has dried cherries on it . Odd but interesting , but I'm not sure it's something I'd get again .

For me, will you read all the signs in a terrible fake French accent? "Le registration!"
