I was so scared I was going to get dry socket when I got my tooth pulled - the dentist said I was an "excellent candidate" - but thank god I was spared.

Because books.
My other issue with it is, will the target audience have even heard the original?
That commercial is weird. But my eight-year-old knew the song. Although he did see that episode of Friends in syndication.

Uh, what makes you a good candidate for dry socket?
is not going disclose the date of last visit to dentist, nor the state of unhurting teeth

Jen, Monique mentioned the commercial to me the other day and said how unsettling it was. I finally saw it the other night and emailed her, saying, "WOW. DISTURBING."
Worse than dry socket? Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit.
Allyson and Polgara can bear witness to the badness of the infection. They both got very familiar with tennis ball sized lump underneath my jaw. Polgara got to take me on one of my three trips to the ER. Allyson got to pick me up after my infection draining surgery.
ETA: Polgara also took me for the subsequent six-tooth extraction. Which I'm told was kinda entertaining.

Thanks, Kat! Did you have a nice birthday?

Mmm, I'm working up the nerve to buy Miss September fluevogs at full price in black. I waited too long on Zappos and they are out of my size. (I have them in olive).
what might pull me over is that Flues tend to be wide across the ball and I need that. And Miss S still look slim. Even at nearly $200. Which I've never paid for a shoe.

I did, minus the over hour long wait at the un-airconditioned applestore to have my mac mini wiped, esp. since nothing was backed up.
I wish we could prevail upon you re: Saturday. I need to get your AIM.

We have reservations for Saturday night. Actually, I think we're gonna be right next door to you. *snerk*
ETA: But! If there's something going on post-dinner, I could totally do that. (Dinner reservations are at 7:30.)

"WOW. DISTURBING."
OK, glad it's not just me, then. Really odd choice. I'd have nixed that from on high if I were in charge of advertsing for Target.
