i saw the eye doctor today and put on order anti-glare-coated polycarbonate lenses, along with new frames to replace my falling apart ones. all together (the appointment, the stuff i bought, and a warranty) everything was just over $300. tons more than i usually spend on the eye doctor, and i’ve never had the polycarbonate before, but it’s worth buying the best just in case i can’t afford an appointment/glasses for the next few years. you never know these days…

also went to a friend’s house. it was for her daughter’s engagement party which ended when we thought it began, but they invited us over being the nice people they are.

hanging out in dalnet right now and will probably go to bed soon, been a long day. later

The Burger King I went to had a public soda dispenser (i.e., not behind the cashiers). The following appeared on my plastic soda cup:

HAVE IT YOUR WAY (R)
Est. 1954

A King cup tells others you enjoy the better
things in life. A refill may be all well and good,
but no thank you, you’ll just take this single,
cup of champions, fill it once and sit down
and enjoy your meal. And if somehow you
still finish and need to refill, well, then
you’re that rare breed who needs two giant
vessels of refreshment. And that means only
one thing. You’re having it your way.

And as always, I filled the cup on the way out. It’s in the fridge right now.
