I just found out that my vet charges nail trimming by the behavior of the dog, not by the size of the dog.

Maggie = $8                Molly = $12

Having finally found a dentist with good recommendations that didn't come from total schlubs (Duane! Hakeber!), I left work early yesterday to brace myself for full dental inspection.  (Did you notice I said "left work" yesterday?  Yeah, a big shout out to the State of Georgia for not recognizing yankee presidents.  THANKS, ho.)

I have this, um, thing about the dentist.  Me no likey.  Really.  But I found an awesome dentist in Orlando and faithfully went every 6 months on the dot and it was swell.  Moving to Atlanta screwed that up, and, well, I haven't been until yesterday.  I know... bad.

The office was quite nice and peaceful (the drive to Buckhead, however, NOT peaceful).  I only squealed a little when the hygienist attacked my tartar with the metal spears of death, and even opted for the optional flouride treatment (bad ass!).  But then the doctor came in and gave me the bad news.  My teeth were fine, but I have (duh duh dun...)

THE GUM DISEASE GINGIVITIS.

Gah!

I am so embarassed.  I am a flossing fiend (2-3 times a day), but am not religious about the Sonicare 3 times a day.  So now it's mandatory, as is the Target listerine that sometimes gets used but mostly sits underneath the sink.  I'm hoping I get a better grade when I go back in August.

What it feels like

You know how certain songs remind us of moods or different time periods in our lives?  Scrolling through the iPod, here's a quick glimpse:

Take It Off - The Donnas:  getting ready to go out for the night and have fun

Hurt - Nine Inch Nails:  laying in bed, unable to feel anything and hopped up on antidepressants

Fight For Your Right To Party - Beastie Boys:  5th grade math class.  I don't know why.

Waiting Room - Fugazi:  high school, in the morning before class deciding if I actually wanted to go in

Web In Front - Archers of Loaf:  college, wondering just what the hell I was going to do with my life

Private Idaho - B52s:  dancing!

I got some trackback and comment spam last night.  Sorry kids, but comments and trackbacks will now have to be approved.

Spam is nasty.
