1. I found my glasses that were lost.

2. After orchestra tonight, the conductor came up to me and thanked me for being one of the only people who were actually watching her.

Managed to persuade my old man to lend me the money to get some rolling baccy. Old bugger wasn't having any of it at first, but eventually he figured out I was just going to stick at it until he gave in :autism:

I too just found both pairs of my reading glasses. They had dropped behind my air conditioning unit I have in my room. I don't usually bother to wear my glasses just for day to day activities, but I need to for reading at any more than a couple of  feet away, ever since an accident in the lab as a little kid; which was the result of my failing to predict an exothermic reaction, that caught me right in the face.

I've posted about that before. But that eye seems prone to misfortune. I'm not now really, but I used to be into pyrotechnics, I was shooting down conkers (the large, hard seeds of the horse chestnut tree, used by kids in britain to be threaded on a string for playing the game called ''conkers'' out of a tree with, essentially, one person holds their conker still, dangling in the air from its string, while the other does their best to flick their conker towards the opent. The winner is either the one who breaks the rival's conker fastest, or who survives the most of the attacker's conkers, breaking them in the process)

 something that in principle, was basically a launcher for a rifle grenade-style shell, and the propellant charge ignited prematurely, load of hot sparks got me in the eye, and my face caught bunch of shell casing fragments. Luckily none of the shell casing ended up in my eye.

Still had to have it irrigated for something like 6-7 hours; which I might add, was fucking uncomfortable as shit. 


Could have sworn my shades were in the same place too, but I can't find the twatting things ANYWHERE.

I think I'll get a new pair as soon as I get paid, if I can afford to after paying my old man  back what I owe him, and getting myself the chainmail shirt I've been feasting my eyes on for ages now, I want some to go over my trench, and my shortish, but heavy and restrictive biker style leather coat, to serve as a nicely stylish  weighted sensory toy.

Last night: 
  • company "mafia" Christmas party.  We call it the "mafia" Christmas because the CEO hands out thick envelopes of cash that aren't reported for taxes.  Hey, I'm not complaining :)
  • After two large Stellas I had to leave to go to my final Contracts class.  Two of three classes in the bag now.  Just finals remain.

Today:
  • Last Civil Procedure class
  • Board meeting to approve next years bonuses

Hot buttered flaky biscuits for b'fast.  Yum.

I paid my property taxes.  Good because

A) We have a house
B) We own the house
C) We had enough money to pay the taxes.
