Isn't it so great? Then I was asked to wrangle Dick's standup bass. That was also awesome in the "please don't let me destroy this iconic and very expensive instrument" way.

I'll be thinking about you today, Maria.
I hope things are looking better for your friend, Matt.
I think y'all have heard my rant about how in this country asking for pain killers = junkie, even though there's no evidence that short-term use of opiates for pain is addictive. I've had several root canals, and while they haven't been terribly painful, I was grateful for a pain killer the day after. I swear part of the pain comes from bruises from the dentist's fingers.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I thought the beauty of the root canal is that it stops the tooth from hurting, via killing the root? Which does NOT mean no pain after, just different pain, IME -- my jaw hurt like hell, but my teeth were fine. So I can see a dentist thinking you should be fine.

Completely off topic, although I will add that I value a painkiller like whoa after any dental work, watching The Barefoot Contessa really makes me want to live in the Hamptons.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I am also off topic in that I am crying at the end of Sondheim: The Birthday Concert.

Off Topic Amys would be an excellent band name.

Joel Shumacher passed a group of friends outside a sushi place in Manhattan. He looked even more California Sunshine in person. My friends couldn't figure out why I was tickled and then thought there was something wrong with me for being able to identify a director of Brat Pack movies.

So I thought I got an invitation to a casual alumni cocktail party, but I read the email more closely, and it turns out to be a CAUSAL cocktail party. Awesome! Nerds.
