I got new glasses.
The drinking kind, not the seeing kind.
Miz t. brought them home from Old Tyme Pottery.
A half dozen on sale at half price.
I think there's a certain symmetry to that.
50 cents each.
A little bigger at the top than at the bottom.
Stackable.
They aren't pottery, though.
Lucite.
Double old fashioned size.
Got pineapples on them.
Miz t. sez "Pineapples mean wealth."
I say "No, it's hospitality".
"Oh, I knew it was something good."
They're fairly heavy.
Won't bust up easy.
I like Lucite 'cause they don't sweat as much as glass.
Insulate better.
Scotch & soda tastes just as good out of them as anything else I've tried.
Cheers.

1. Hey...these are BRAND new.
I at least expected a "congratulations on your good fortune" for this terminally mundane post.

5. I knew you'd appreciate it.
Not quite up to the "nuns on (Ess-Ee-Ex) holiday", but mundane, nevertheless.
Yes, heft is important.
