Free pens, removal for hearing, new phones, shower curtains, and cucumber-melon hand sanitizer

Hmm. I got a free green pen in the mail from Royale LePage. It was as part of this homeowner offer... I'll just take the pen, haha. I went out to run a few errands, and having stuff removed painlessly is a very good thing... now I have my hearing back! Also, I had my glasses tightened and cleaned: continually adjusting my glasses / not being able to hear on the weekend would both be very bad things indeed! I got some shrimp noodles (although I'm having curry), and a new phone with Caller ID for my room - the existing one's Caller ID buttons have been mashed down for years, and it's starting not to sound very nice. :P

I also got some emergency gum since I didn't have any on me when I went out (needed fresh breath for the walk-in clinic visit :P), and a 240mL cucumber-melon hand sanitizer (expiring in April 2008) from London Drugs. Maybe now Eric M. won't complain as much about the Purell smell on Friday nights, haha. I was reading in 24 that you should have 66% alcohol in those things, and this new one only has 62% - not that I think it makes THAT much of a difference! Now that Eric H. is coming over, I'll get him to replace the shower curtain too. Good thing I didn't have to buy one of those, since Dawn's family got me one when I moved into this apartment! (I also paid my bills, heh) Now I have news / RM work to do... maybe a quiz post later!
