I don't know about the rest of you eyeglass wearers, but I seem to have, in the many years I've been wearing glasses, ranked up a rather large list of ways in which I've managed to damage them, including the arm falling off, splitting them in two at the nose-piece, losing a nosepiece, scratching the lenses all to hell and back, and the masterpiece: Dropping them in a lake.

Last night, I added another tick to my glasses injury list: Somehow, I'm still not even sure how, I broke off the very tip of the earpiece--you know, the rounded part at the end. That whole part just kinda slipped off when I took off my glasses to rub my eyes (I was tired). I'm still trying to figure out how that happened, because it is totally RANDOM and I have no idea how taking off my glasses would be so abusive that those would just break off. But in any case, it's resulted in the end of my glasses having a sharp pointy tip (as the metal's exposed now), so I need to get that fixed, lest I scratch myself horribly when trying to get my glasses on. Luckily, it's easily fixable with a little super glue.

Note to self: Buy super glue today.

On a different note, while I am positively ECSTATIC that the weather is going through a huge temperature drop, from the horrible 90 degree weather in OCTOBER we've been having to something more seasonal, I really wish it wouldn't play havoc on my sinuses. Head hurting. ;_;

Let's see, what's been going on with me...

--My brother graduated high school on Friday. I'm incredibly happy for him. ^_^ Especially since the school system 'round these parts is going to hell in a handbasket. They really need to stop raising the bar so high. Exit exams, senior projects, block scheduling, extra math classes--and they wonder why the dropout rate is increasing.

--I wore my TARDIS shirt today, which ended up getting noticed by a couple of people. I was tickled that there are some in the vicinity that actually got it.

--Did a bit of vegetable tending today, including pinching the latent buds on the tomatoes (as recommended by one of the people I work with to encourage them to flower) and rescuing one of the peppers from the pumpkins. Apparently, while I thought that by planting the pumpkins in front of them, they'd be inclined to move towards the light (and away from them), there was still a rogue tendril that found the pepper and decided it would make an excellent support. So that tendril got cut in a hurry. It also appears that the pumpkins are fixing to flower, which makes me happy. ^_^ It also makes me cringe slightly, because once my veggies start fruiting, the real battle against the insects (and other critters) will begin.

--Speaking of insects, though, I was happy to notice a honeybee buzzing about the thyme today. I'm hoping that means there's a hive somewhere nearby with happy, healthy, not-abandoning bees. ^_^ I've seen a lot of bumblebees around too (they love the salvia), which is nice, but that honeybee really made me smile.

--Okay sinuses, the storm from yesterday has passed through. The pressure in the air has equalized. You can stop hurting now. Don't make me get a headectomy.

Oh, also.

Does anyone know of any way to treat sinus headaches that don't involve copious amounts of sudafed? I've had an on again, off again sinus headache for the past week or so, and I'm getting really tired of it, and having to take sudafed to keep it at bay. I'm guessing it's the changing weather that's getting it all riled up. So if anyone knows of other ways, I'd appreciate it. <3 <3
