Ha! Sorry to chuckle, Sheryl, I can see me doing that so easily.

Our wings are not tired.

So last night I went to a movie and decided to get some butterfinger candies on impulse. Sat down and first bite my shiny gold bling crown came off. It isn't bothering me at all, but I am wondering about trying the temporary crown cement stuff they sell OTC, or if I should just wait until I get back to FL and see a dentist. It is the furthest back molar so not annoying.

Laura, in your shoes I'd have the dentist look at it rather than jury-rig a temp solution and be worrying about when the crown would pop off again.

Ugh. I know an 8:30am meeting isn't that early, but my flight lands late tonight and I don't wanna get up and be coherent before 9 tomorrow morning.

My dentist sent me off with denture cream when I had temps & had me use that if they popped off during nondental hours (one did.) When I popped a permanent off, it was just before office hours, so I just held it in, but first thing they asked was if I'd used the poligrip. Teeth can shift fast and render the crown useless. I'd use denture goo & call your dentist for direction. I imagine a local dentist would have no problem recementing it. It's literally just clean & reglue as long as there are no underlying issues.

Sheryl, that reminds me of the time that I found SEVEN nail clippers inside the lining of my purse, thanks to a small rip. I thought I must have been misplacing them over a period of months.

Argh. I see on FB that layoffs have started at work. I guess I will find out tomorrow who all is gone. I assume if I was laid off someone would have called to tell me, but who knows?

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

Good luck, -t!

Well, I'm not on the list my coworker ran down, but some of my friends are. Sad. And not looking forward to the added workload to come.
