Number9, sometimes my thumb aches me because I broke it many, many years ago. I hope your thumb will stop aching!

Here's my gripe for today: smudges on glasses. I'm sure someone has complained about smudges before. One of three things I don't like about glasses is when they get smudges. I hate smudges. Grrrrr!

I used to have an ex-boyfriend who would endearingly and disturbingly clean my glasses with his own saliva whenever they got smudged.

The first time it happened went something like this:

Me: "Arrrggh! A smudge!"
Him: "Let me see 'em."
Me: (innocently hands over glasses)
Him: Spit! Spit! Wipe! Wipe!

To my horror, he cleaned them up lickity-spit. But I had to admit, it really worked well...partly because I hate saliva and so I made extra sure not to touch my glasses after he'd cleaned them this way.

After that, if we were out somewhere and my glasses got smudged, I handed them over, ignored the method, and appreciated the results, trying to remember that saliva is THE preferred cleaning agent for fine paintings.

Anyhoo, my gripe was that I don't like smudges on glasses. Or saliva, but smudges are worse.
