pince-nez



Greetings, this is going to be about pince-nez. They are the glasses that people wear without the side bows on them. I've been wearing them for the last hour or so and they're okay, I guess. The type I have are the same ones as Offenbach (the guy who wrote the music to the can-can), Carl Schurz (famous German American), and Joseph Pulitzer (the man who bought the newspaper The World). They don't hurt really, but they are a bit of a pain on the sides of my nose a little bit. The cork pads are worn out and the metal is wearing through. I hope that the metal isn't nickel, or I'll break out, since I'm allergic to nickel. The other type I have are made of silver from 1883.So I hope all goes well for the pince-nez.

Back to School!

Greetings one and all,

 I'm going back to school tomorrow. Of all the things that were on the to-do list, not much has been done. I've finished my friend's coat, fixed two of mine,and I'm almost done with the plain coat. I've also had 1 friend over the whole summer as well as level the holy hill but that's it. The list of things I HAVEN'T done is longer. I've not washed the car, done an oil change, mowed the lawn or dug a hole, put the things into the hole usw. But the summer was well worth it, nonetheless. I'll post more when I find something to post about.
