Back from dental trip no. 3 (clean teeth); next visit is February and replacement crown.

With cracked crown cutting my tongue, I walked to / called my way down a list of dentists trying to find someone taking new patients, who'd see me before 2024.

This practice was a fair ways down that list, but saw me the same day, made the additional appts in same month, and is even recognized by my worthless insurance.

It's all been weirdly pleasant.

I'm not normally this lucky. #KnockOnWood

So the past two weeks have had dentistry, car towing and repair, a handful of store trips (stain/poly, potatoes, windshield wipers, etc.). Tomorrow I'm walking to the drugstore to get boostered.

All this has involved far more live interactions with humans than I've had in years. It's good that it's all been glommed together like this. I've had no time to properly dwell on the situation and wallow in anxiety, as I am wont to do. 🙄
