Still Coughing

I was sick back at Christmas, but I'm still coughing. I blame the bad job the windows are doing in my apartment. But all in all, I know that they are just old and need replacing. And perhaps baseboards would be a better way to heat a room then one radiator in one part of the room with a thermostat that turns itself off when it feels like it, even if that is right after you turn it on to get warm.

Anyway.

Because of this persistent cough that sounds like I have a chest cold, I've changed my standing order at Jamba Juice. I use to have the Greens 'n Ginger, now I'm ordering the Acai Super Antioxidant one because it comes with the zinc boost in. Now, slightly oddly, I'm drinking hot ginger tea. Perhaps it's the heat that makes all the difference.

Everything coming out Jamba is cold or near frozen or crushed ice. Which is one of the reasons I didn't go near them when we were in our deep freeze.

Other than that, I thought I broke my frames the other day. I picked up my glasses and was cleaning the lens when one popped out. I thought, "Great. I haven't started to pay for these things yet and I've already broken it. At least I got insurance replacement on them."

So I packed up my old pair in case anything happened to them and I couldn't use them for awhile. But I was able to get the lens back in the frame and use them during work, on Friday, until I got them looked at after my shift. Lucky me they weren't broken. Just a loose screw. I also had her look at some other glasses I had gotten ages ago but never used because they wrote a very wrong prescription for me and couldn't fix it.

It seems that just to get the lenses replaced is going to cost me about $400. For Pete sake. So I told her that I can't even think of getting them until I've paid off my current pair.

This is when I lost my hat. I think. I may have dropped it on their chair. It might have fallen out of my pocket on my way to them, or when I was leaving them. I just know that when I got outside and was looking for it to put on my head, it was gone.
