Eclipse Countdown

Note to Self...

If you wear glasses or contacts and you are blind without them, you should always carry a backup...NO MATTER WHERE YOU GO.

Yes, I'm a little bit adamant about it because it makes for a VERY long day when you have CSS (can't see shit). On Friday morning, I was on the the bus minding my business going to work. There was something on my glasses and so I took them off to clean them and they snapped in half. When I got to work, I tried to glue them and tape them, neither worked. I didn't have any contacts with me. So I sat two inches from my pc most of the day trying to read emails. Then I went to my work holiday party which was really fun not being able to see anything. :) Today I went to get new glasses. Due to the holidays, they don't know how long it will take for them to come in :) What else is knew?


Yes, I'm posing them. Broken glasses can now be used for sculpture.
P.S. When I went to get new ones, the doctor actually made fun of me :(



My new glasses are this frame...
But in this maroon/blue color

Last Sunday I went to the Vikings/Detroit game at the metrodome. Here are some pics I took at the game.

The Vikings run out on to the field

The flag all spread out


Check out the screen, a National Guardsman was on the screen talking to his family on the field

New Moon

I couldn't resist. As you can see, the New Moon countdown is at 0. Yes, I went to the movie tonight. It was everything I'd hoped for, though New Moon was my least favorite book. Eclipe, the next movie in the series comes out in June, so until then I will just stalk R Pats online and read some other books :)

Thanks to day light savings, I managed to get to Target early and score some sweet Halloween decorations 60% off. I probably got a little carried away, but I love Halloween!!! Here are some photos of my collection.
