Ah...nothing better than some brand new glasses. Just remember to take better care of them. They aren't cheap, you know (at least mine weren't)... no need for another pair of "ganso" glasses...

Maybe it was because someone else was trying to touch your eyes, I can put eyeliner on etc, myself but if someone else is messing with my eyes I flinch and tighten up my eyes. Maybe?

I'll remember that the next time I feel like a board slapped me across the face! Which is usually due to happen right about now. Allergies can really lead to nasty sinus infections.

Nope. It's your regular average tea, made pretty much the same way as any other tea. Cinnamon tea is also just as effective in relieving congestion. It's also got a very nice taste to it.
