Uh, is he a retired engineer, by any chance? Just asking.
Got it in one.
He was uncomfortable! And he has some cognitive impairment such that he kept forgetting why he was undergoing such an unpleasant experience. But they gave him wax to cover the sore spots, and he had liquid painkillers, and lots of shakes. I figured he was okay.
Turns out sometime during the night he managed to get the whole wire assembly attached to his dentures out of his mouth. Ate cold cereal for breakfast! I, foolishly, didn't even notice, and it wasn't until we got to he oral surgeon that all was revealed.
I was pretty close to tearing my hair out.
So the surgeon gave up on wires, loaded him up with elastic, and reminded him (again) that he has to let the bone heal, and this is the only way. I'm... not optimistic. But I don't think we have any options.
Dad of Consuela, stop that! Maybe a cone of shame would help?
Thanks for the birthday wishes! I am currently celebrating with Soy Skinny Mocha at Starbucks before heading to the gym where I think I will not avail myself of the birthday amenity of free towel service but will continue celebrating with a Barre class. I've been meaning to try this class and today seems like a good day for it.

Oh funny but sad. Man, parents!?!
Customer has called in to complain about not being able to do something on our website training course. Customer Service Rep: "What kind of Internet connection do you have? Your phone? Ummm . . ." And snickers go round the room.
Happy birthday, -t!
I was in. a. mood. at the start of the work day, but this afternoon I was befriended by a 2-year-old. Now if only she could come hang out every day.

(I think for a mastiff even a glamour shot has drool.)
Drool is a deal breaker when it comes to critters. I'm sorry, but I cannot deal with drool.
When I woke Casper up this morning, she had drooled all over her hand. (She also told me about her dream, in which she and Lila and Jonah and Owen were dressed in tooth costumes, and people were throwing tomatoes at them, and then she went into the bathroom and it was filled with sporks hanging from the ceiling. She has insane/awesome dreams.)
