When I joined here my niece wasn't old enough for a cell phone. Now she's married and due to give birth any day. Time, man.
I have a dental appointment at a new place today. Wish me healthy bony protrusions!

Good luck with the dentist, Calli. I found one nearby with good reviews that I need to check out. I love going to the dental school, but it is over an hour each way in heavy Fort Lauderdale traffic and just too time consuming.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Good luck, Calli!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
My nephew was 2 (or almost 2) when I started hanging around here. He'll be 19 in a couple weeks.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Remember how old Holli was when she started posting? She's on Tumblr talking about being a fandom old, and she's not wrong.

Thanks, y'all. Everything went well enough. Getting ones gums poked with pointy implements is never fun, but nothing dramatic was uncovered.
The dentist looked half my age. Sadly, that did not make him look too young to be a dentist. I could have lived without hearing "a little gum recession is normal as one gets older," but where's the lie.

Hooray for no drama!
One of my coworkers randomly baked a cake for me - she was making pineapple upside cake for her brother and saw the recipe for "my" cake on the back and figured while she was baking she might as well. So nice!
I really feel like cancelling direct-to-customer orders so we can move inventory into the outlet sale is dumb. Above my paygrade, though, apparently.
