Heh. My Google Quote of the day is from RAH.
Progress isn't made by early risers. It's made by lazy men trying to find easier ways to do something.

Awright! There's hope for me yet!

Wow, you really did kill it--for more than six hours.
30k in dental work has a way of stunning people into silence, I suppose.

If I have $30K done to my body, I want more than nice teeth to show for it.
Although I hear nice teeth are nifty.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Kristen, you better go back and demand more stuff for your money!

The ability to chew real food without pain is a nice plus.

I can imagine. I'm not doubting the benefits of what you went through, I'm just amazed at the costs.
I bet you can even bite into ice cream bars, too. I was a dental phobe for 13 years, and when i conquered it and had my teeth drilled filled and otherwise repaired, I was thrilled at how much tolerance I had for hot and especially cold things.
It's just that $30K is a scary number.
It means you had some advanced work done. Stuff I hope never to do. And I probably skimmed over the details, if they were provided.
Still? ouch.

Kristen, inspired by your covetousness, I went out and bought that pink bike with the martini motif for JZ.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Yippee! Girl bike!! (Umm, you weren't planning on making this a surprise, were you, Hec?)

YAY! That's so cool. You'll have post pictures for us.
