Giving Up
After breaking two pair of glasses, in the same place, in two or three months, I decided to go without for a while. I did fine without them for nigh on sixty years; surely I can do it again!
Nnnope. Standing in front of the class, peering at the textbook, and finally having to ask, "In problem 25, is the exponent on the 'x' 2 or 3?"... is *embarrassing*.
So, today, I wandered over to Target to pick up a new pair. The glasses that seemed best to me are unfortunately decorated - a degree of glitter that is not to my taste - but they do the job, so...
On the way back, I stopped off at the old Schnucks - the one that *isn't* closing - to buy some milk and try to get a feel for the layout. I think I'll be able to find things. I didn't check the cereal aisle, so I don't know whether they have the brands I like, but I did peek at the dog food/treats area. They don't seem to carry Alpo Variety Snaps, so B&G will have to make do with Milk-Bones, but in other respects it seemed satisfactory.
