I got my temporary crown today after a couple of false starts, and most of the pain was in my wallet as expected. I hate how rough the plastic feels to my tongue, though.

Naturally, when I checked to see what snack foods I have in my cupboard tonight it was popcorn and sunflower seeds. If I eat either this crown would probably look like a jian dui afterward.

Thrive to spite them

Yeah stay away from anything crunchy or anything that gets even a little sticky with a temp crown. Just from my experience.

Susan. I went with the bridge option over an implant mostly because my dental anxiety is so bad . Except for the bridge breaking saga (which was a totally freak thing) it's been ok. I'm lucky it fits really tight against my gum so I dont have to worry about stuff getting under it. But that is always something to consider. If I didn't have the extreme dental issues I'd probably go with an implant.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

This is just to say that I am having a 404 sort of morning. Can't find my computer distance glasses, or my badge to get into the office, I know where my wallet is but that is in my purse which is in my living room, not with me (which I discovered when I had to stop and get gas, luckily I keep a gas card in the car) and I seem to have forgotten how to make coffee, or how it tastes, or something. Very off. Should probably shut down and reboot.

And my coworker who sits next to me just stopped by to say she didn't have her bag of papers she is working on today because she grabbed her son's bag instead. So I guess it is just that kind of day. Hope you are all managing better.

Useta-could.

I neglected to replace the batteries in my smoke alarms when we switched to DST. I paid for it last night just before midnight when the low-battery chirp woke me up.

I got the battery changed out okay, but I had trouble getting back to sleep.

I have been lethargic all morning. I'm on lunch break now. I expect the rest of the work day will be a struggle.

Ugh.

In better news, my bird feeder has been visited by a couple of eastern bluebirds for three days in a row now. I hope they are a mating pair, will stick around, and I eventually get to see fledglings.

They are very timid. I haven't managed to get a picture yet.

Bluebirds! Yay!

I love seeing bluebirds at the feeder.
