Following up on the mini trauma of last evening. After some panicky calling around, I found a dentist who could take me right away, just 3 blocks from my friend's office.

::Cue celestial music of gratitude::

I have found a new dental home...hallelujah. I love these people and they did an amazing job. You seriously cannot tell a chunk of tooth was ever missing.

Plus, they gave me 12 months interest free financing, evened out my snaggles and gave me a great deal on whitening.

I suppose now is not the time to be investing in something like that, but if I am to begin job-seeking and getting out in the world in a different way, it feels right to be more confident about my smile.

The office is gorgeous, people seem to love their jobs and there was NOTHING scary about it...not even that icky smell you get in so many dental offices.

So, I'm thanking that bit-o-tooth for falling off and introducing me to these great folks.

Seriously Todd, give this practice a look.

Washington Center for Dentistry, 1430 K St NW 8th Floor. 223.6630

They were awesome and my smile looks so much better even before the whitening!

Sorry Joe and Aimee.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I'm kind of glad they didn't try to put fingers on him with peace signs like the illustrations. The way it pops out he just looks like he's wanting a hug.

Good luck at the unemployment office Joe. It looks like you can file online [link] in Michigan, too.

Now I'm imagining Joe calling into the unemployment office like his recounts of calls to where he worked.

Unemployment worker: We're sorry you lost your job.

MM: I'm not.

UW: ???

MM: Oh, it sucked, I had to take calls all day, many from idiots. Anything would be better than that job.

UW: We have openings cleaning toilets and hauling garbage.

MM: Wooo hooo! Ca-Ching!

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Hmmm...I suppose I could get back to that, if nothing else to keep me sane.
Keep sane? Um. When did you loose the "in"?

I know you've been through it before , Joe. But I hope it is over in the blink of an eye. Matt has been out of work for about 3 weeks now -- and he pretty much feels like a yo-yo riding a roller coaster.
