A spectacle or two

The local library is having their fall book sale. I bought almost all mysteries with one glaring exception. The types of media are growing steadily to include everything from cds/dvds/vhs to even manga. Still a bit claustrophobic at times, but not nearly as bad as it used to be when they held it in the auditorium.

Then I headed off to pick up my glasses. They said one pair was ready on Friday. The optician was actually finishing the sunglasses when I arrived, so it was good timing. The lenses for my regular spectacles are more square than I expected. I'm used to more rounded ones. It'll take some getting used to. The bus route that runs that direction is annoying though. The express bus in the evenings run right by that shopping mall. The regular line cuts around it. Anyone who knows the Seven Corners area knows how bad it is. Now imagine being stuck on the opposite side of the road you need to be. I should checked the WMATA site beforehand, so I knew which cross streets I actually needed.

My poor Serenity keychain died last night. They gave them out at the preview screening. The keychain holder split nastily in half after I dropped it. So I swapped it out for the Sheppard/Weir one I bought at the last MediaWest. The timing given this season couldn't be worse...

Off to watch Bama-Florida State. Redskins have a bye week, so my Sunday is my own for a change.
