Thanks, Laura. A few summers back with a different dentist got unexpectedly dramatic. Keep thinking I'm over it, but not quite.
I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

Yeah, dramatic amd dentist are not descriptors I want to have in the same scenario. May your cleaning be brief and uneventful.

Used the water-pik beforehand--that helps a bit.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Compadres in dentistry today, erika! I'm off as soon as I exchange indoor pants for outdoor ones, and do sometshing with my hair. I love my dentist tech. She (imaginarily) pats my head and tells me "good girl" about flossing and so on and gives me the toothbrushes I like and the little fishline loops for cleaning under my bridge, and toothpaste I don't use. DH does though, so he gets the toothpaste. I get a scenic drive after, and since it's sunny today, that will be nice.
Our furnace has come on this week, and it's been welcome. It's fall, finally, and I'm glad to see the back of summer. It's usually also the back of fire season. Of course we have the tsunami warning sirens check tomorrow--it's always something. So far no volcano warnings, though. Crossing rain of fire off the list, at least for now.

Yes I had to turn on my heat when I got home after this weekend. Otherwise it was way too cold in here.

Dental both as good as expected and ran into a Dem organizer that has the same dentist. Sent her a link for virtual #NoKings--smallest morsel of fate ever. Brought Victor's book with me, so you were there in spirit, too.
