She's been in California for a few days, and was supposed to fly home today.
D'oh! I forgot that.
Dawn: I thought you were adequate. Giles: And the accolades keep pouring in. I'd best take my leave before my head swells any larger. Good night.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I was relieved to get the crowns today- fixed several issues with those teeth.
Mind you, about ..uh, 5-7 years ago, I finally went to the dentist after a decade of ignoring my teeth due to various stupid sorta phobic/denial issues. And quickly dropped over 5K, I think, and got my first crown on a tooth I was afraid they would have to pull. Yeah, it was bad. NSM due to my neglect (they assured me) but just losing the genetic lottery. Which was stacked against me.
Now I'm all about regular checkups and getting shit fixed NOW. Because I have needed a root canal and I LOVED MY ROOT CANAL. But I never want to experience the pain that necessitated the RC ever again. And they've put fillings that deal with the painful nervy bits and shit doesn't hurt anymore.
Well, except tonight.
And it occurs to me, I have forgotten how many crowns I have now. 8? 9? 6 on top, I know.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Oh hi, my teeth and forthcoming Very Expensive Implant (and crowns, and root planing and scaling).

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
As long as pain is dealt with, I will be okay. But I am not altogether sure I need the crown in the first place, so that's part of my hesitation. I think I'm going to have him do the 2 fillings and he will have to explain to me why I need the crown.
I had one spot where they wanted to crown but it wasn't absolutely called for so I went for just having him do a larger filling. I honestly regret that now.
It's the tenderest spot in my mouth and because it's on the top, plays terrible games with my sinuses when they act up. Probably because the material is not teeth and thus responds to pressures and temperatures slightly differently than tooth.
I think I'd be much happier if I'd just had them crown it at first.
Which could be a vastly different situation than yours.
I just had no idea the repercussions I could have when opting for a filling on the larger end versus crowning. It seemed like the easy choice at the time and I was wrong.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
My new dentist hates my old dentist for what he considers poor decisions in my dental history. On the other hand, I think I have convinced my new dentist that I am not going to appear in movies anytime soon, and do not need teeth that would be a flawless blinding smile twenty feet high on screen. Function, please, and let someone else put your youngest through law school.
I am so very much on the JZ book wagon. I offer beta services. I can be very nice!

Well, NYC schools are supposedly open tomorrow even though we're supposed to get a foot of snow dumped on us. Looking forward to a hellish commute tomorrow, yeah!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Someone's pissing me off on Facebook. Need to step away.

Cass,
that is a sane and reasonable perspective. I hope my id gets it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Slightly random question: I'm halfway through a sequence of OTP pictures--I have two weeks left to go. And assaulting my files at this rate is making me bored with more and more of them.
Do you guys stumble onto good couple pictures? I can't promise they'll work for this, but I file everything forever--it might be used later. I would be grateful.
