Dang it, I broke a tooth. (Or maybe a filling -- some of my fillings are the composite tooth-colored material, so I'm not actually sure if it's tooth or filling that came out.) Anyway, nothing hurts, so I'm debating whether I should see an emergency dentist today or wait until Monday to call my regular dentist. Probably the smart thing would be to see the emergency dentist today.

I decided to go ahead and make an appointment at the emergency dentist. If it's a broken tooth (vs. filling), I worry that it might break further before I can see my regular dentist, even if I'm careful and chew on the other side. If it breaks further, that might mean root canal or extraction, which I'd rather avoid.
There's an emergency dentist close by, with an appointment at 3, so I'm going to be responsible.

I hope it is a quick and easy fix.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Best to get dental stuff taken care of if you have the option.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
That's good, Steph, it's not like you have anything going on these days.

Yeah, I did need to fill up today's free time that I otherwise could have used by going to the grocery store.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.
Condolences and hugs, PMM. I'm so sorry.
And goddamnit, Ken Dryden slipped away from us last night. Great goaltender, brave politician, and apparently an all-around decent human being. Fuck cancer.
