To make sure I floss regularly, I keep floss on the table next to the sofa and floss while watching tv

Good Lord. I have to look in the mirror to floss.

I sincerely love the dental school faculty here.

JZ, I'm sure they appreciate the fact that you are able to tell them what you want. I've found that asking if I have any options very helpful for both my understanding and the dentist's understanding of just what a wuss I am.

That said, my dentist was very surprised that I have chosen to have a gold crown next month, and not a porcelain one. I have a mouth full of silver amalgum fillings, what's a little more metal to me? It's way back on a molar, so who will see it? The gold lasts longer and dentists are generally better at putting them in, too. I want my money's worth, damn it.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Whereas my dentist recommended a gold overlay vs. a porcelain one for me. They cost the same and the gold will last much, much longer. I now have a gold overlay on one of my back teeth. Can't really see it unless I open my mouth really wide.

Plus, how can you pass up the bling?

If I only had a brain...

My officemate is having an argument with his wife over the phone. Kill me now.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Why kill you? They're the ones fighting. Who's wrong from where you're sitting?

Him for talking to her, at length, about why she shouldn't get caught up in a friend's drama six feet away.

Can't really see it unless I open my mouth really wide.

I remember watching some tv movie about Henry VIII and Anne Boylen. Her alleged lover was being tortured, and as he screamed the camera went in for a close shot on his open mouth. Which was full of very 20th century silver dental work. It took me out of the moment as much as a digital watch on his wrist would have.

Details folks. It's all in the details.

silly BHP-office mate, this is what cell phones are for.

Yay to the discomfort, though, Betsy. No, I mean, boo. Boo to the discomfort.
