darn library

I can't join the local library. You need 2 proofs of address. 1 I have--drivers license. The other I don't because none of the utility or tax bills are in my name and I never write any checks so I don't have a cancelled one! (And what a stupid rule these days since the banks no longer return your cancelled checks. I could try taking my bank statement in I guess... but I doubt they'll bend the rules even slightly.)

Hmm, just realized, I could have my mom join and use her card, since no one will ever check ID. Though it might not work for signing up for programs which is why I wanted to join.

Oh, just what I needed

I took my glasses off for a minute to rub my nose. Aliza instantly grabbed them, twisted one earpiece, then did something so the wire (I have half-rims) popped out and the lens came out. I think she may have bent the frames. If she has, it's unfixable. I am crying at what it will cost to replace these. They're not designer frames but they're semi-rimless with high index lenses. I didn't even get super high index last time (and I should have) and I think the total was about £200.
