Uh huh
This morning I picked out new glasses! Those of you who don’t wear glasses can’t really appreciate the scale of this task. I wear mine all the time so it can literally change how I look completely. I chose a plastics tortoise shell frame, which I liked. The thing about picking glasses, and those who wear glasses may have experienced this, is while trying on different frames you can’t see yourself in them. I had to get 5 inches in front of the mirror to get an idea of how I looked or attempt to look through my existing glasses while wearing the new frame, but that doesn’t work all too well either. I recommend wearing your contacts, if you have them, when you go to pick out new frames. I even got glare resistance lenses. I’ve made some videos in the past on my computer and my lenses always had this horrid glare. That won’t be a problem any longer.
Afterwards I went and got something done that I hate with a passion. Getting the oil changed in my car. I’m the type of person who waits a little too long and always seems to get yelled at by whoever’s working. The conversation usually goes like this:
(I remove the sticker from my window shield so they don’t know exactly how far over I am before I pull in)
Rude oil changing man: Yeah, your oil didn’t even register on the dipstick
Me: Uh huh
Rude oil changing man: That’s not good. Do you know how to check your oil?
Me: Uh huh
Rude oil changing man: You need to start doing that. Do you know how bad it is for your car? Let me tell you what happens when you’re low on oil…(I fall asleep)…is that clear?
Me: Uh huh
Rude oil changing man: You might be leaking oil. You should…( I fall asleep)…is that clear?
Me: Uh huh
Rude oil changing man: Do you want a car wash?
Me Uh huh
Needless to say it was a traumatic experience for me. I will be sending someone to get my oil changed in the future or else keep a better eye on my mileage.
The Key Note Speech is up for Apple. They just introduced the iPad. It looks pretty cool and seems to run all the apps that I use most frequently. It’s only .5’’ thick and 1.5lbs with a 10-hour battery life. It’s not available yet, but it will be mine soon enough.
