Silly Stuff in Simi

As we're getting on the bike to go meet the others, Dave hears something hit the garage floor, but doesn't check it out. We get to Starbuck's and he thinks his vision is blurred so he decides to clean them. Well, the lens is gone and then he figures out his lens fell out in the garage. But he doesn't want to go home because it will hold things up, and when you make an AIS time, NO ONE WANTS TO BE THE ONE TO MESS IT UP! Especially Dave. So he figures he'll just wear his old pair. He goes to put them on, and that's when he realizes that the screw has fallen out and he can't wear the extra pair. Fortunately the lens that fell out is in his better eye. He puts the sunglasses over the glasses and just soldiers on. While in Simi Valley we purchased one of those eyeglass repair kits, but we're just not able to get it to work (old eyes and big fingers). So off we go to Lenscrafters, which is really close by. They fixed it in a couple of minutes, for free! Yea for Lenscrafters.

So now for the next silly thing.....Dave's iPhone wouldn't charge. And he is tethered to that electronic leash. We brought my charge cord, that didn't seem to work on his phone. We tried Donna's charging pad, and that didn't work. We Googled, thinking that the difference could be the 4 v 3GS v 3. When finished with the glasses, we stopped at the Apple store down the way in the mall. We spoke with the very young "small component specialist" and then another employee. We are definitely the oldest people in this store, they are humoring us.....we then decided to just use the display charger and it worked! The final answer was that Dave's case must have gotten in the way and the connection just wasn't good enough. While we're standing around charging, we did get a whole lot of attention.....but everyone was great.

Here's Dave slumming it on my phone
