New glasses, new print head

A couple weeks ago I had an eye exam, since it had been about three years since my last one, and it went just fine. I even survived the dreaded glaucoma test puff of air! One of my eyes had changed quite a bit, and I've been wanting new glasses anyway, so I was happy to pick out some new ones. I got new prescription sunglasses, too, and I like them so much more than my old ones (which were a little dorky). They made my sunglasses right away, but I had to wait for my regular lenses to be ordered, but they finally came in today. So far I really like my new glasses - they feel lighter, and I can really see better, too! They don't look dramatically different from my old glasses, but I think they're a little cooler.

On a completely unrelated topic, my Canon i850 printer stopped working recently. The status lights said the print head needed attention, which doesn't say much, so I looked around online and found some information about cleaning it. Unfortunately, cleaning didn't help. I almost bought a new printer, but I realized I could just buy a new print head for about $50. I got it this week and everything was working again in about two minutes. I didn't realize how much I depend on my printer until I was printerless! Almost everything I print is stuff from the web - mostly coupons and Google maps (where would I be without them?).
