There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Get this, though. The ONE Saturday morning cartoon we were allowed to watch? The Smurfs.

They totally missed the subtext, didn't they?

sj, did you get your rough draft done?

Sort of. It was a very rough draft, but it was submitted in time, and I am hoping to re-submit a better one today.

I think so.

That's good, sj.

I have a tooth ache.

I just called 20 different dentists in my area. The ONE that takes Medicare/Medicaid is not currently accepting new patients. The rest don't take Medicare or Medicaid.

I'm so screwed. This tooth is getting worse. I really need to be seen. Blech.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I was just flipping through our copy the other day, pondering which recipes would be good at a big gathering - ones that would be easily made ahead, easily kept warm or cold, etc. Let us know how you like the ones you try, Aillean.

Can you go to a Gentle Dentle type place? I don't know if they are any cheaper though, although they generally do a cheap intro cleaning/xray thing.

vw, that is so aggravating. I have had that trouble with my medical coverage in the past too. Can you call the number on the back of your card and see if they can find you a dentist in your area that is accepting new patients?

That's rough, vw. I hope you can work something out soon.

I've actually called the one place that accepts Medicare/Medicaid once a month since I moved. They always say, "Call back next month." I probably could have avoided this. It kinda pisses me off.

I just did a search on Mediare.gov. Hopefully this will come up with something.

28 phone calls later, and I found a place that will take MassHealth. Actually, called Gentle Dental, and they referred me to a place. Bless them.

I have to call back later, because they are on their lunch break. But, they should be able to get me in soon. Thank goodness.
