A friend of mine just posted on facebook that their sixth child was just born. The mother is a few years younger than me. I can't even imagine having that many kids.
They'll make it to ten, I'm sure of it!
My work's illegal, but at least it's honest.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
According to Twitter, shrift is indeed in Chicago. She's probably arriving home nowish.
Chicago is one giant slushie spill.
I just sent an email to a Director detailing info on three flights.
His response?

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
One more point of anecdata for le nubian - I got my first crown last year. It was...uneventful. I mean, no scabbing, more weird pressure than pain that I remember. It was, however, 2 visits, no wait, 3, because they managed to not get the permanent crown sized right the first time. But other than that, not at all horrible like my brain was bracing itself for it to be.

Just finishing work. I need a staff to do this stuff for me.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
One more point of anecdata for le nubian
I feel like we're terrifying her. But honestly I balked at price more than actual experience and I kinda wish I'd gone for the crown.
It's a clearly personal thing and no one's teeth are the same so it's a tough thing of pushing back to protect yourself and still taking the best care of your teeth and bank accounts.
Another person might be fine with this filling. I? Am a weather balloon. I feel pressures and most hurt. So it's very subjective.
le n, I wish you a good dental experience. I hope we didn't freak you out or only talk about the bad bits. I do have one crown and it doesn't hurt ever. Wasn't bliss or cheap to get but it was a good call.

I had a Crown done just with one of the caines (Nova, Lido or whatever) - local, no general, no gas, no sedative. It was fine - really hurt less than typing does a lot of the time.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I am just getting off work, waiting for the rest of my carpool back to my car so I can go home. I have an appointment with a personal trainer at 10 am. That was kind of a dumb decision.
I think I have a crown. It doesn't bother me and I don't particularly remember the procedure. For another anecdata point.

Thrive to spite them
It's a snow day! And my landlady's kids are celebrating by running from one end of the apartment from the other. It's like living under a herd of wild ponies.
At least they aren't skipping this time.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Hm. NYC schools are still on, no early dismissal announced. Literally every school district north of us announced either a closing or an early dismissal late yesterday, but Bloomberg has apparently decided he's had enough of being prepared and is going back to his 2010-style of just winging it and hoping everything works out.
