The Dentist...

I went to the dentist today for the first time in... several years. Of course I have all of the normal excuses - no insurance, no time, no desire... But I finally had to go. Check up and a cleaning. Turns out I need to get a couple of fillings repaired (awesome!), which will cost $150. Geez-a-loo. But, it could be worse. I also made an appointment with an oral surgeon to get my wisdom teeth removed. The dentist today, Dr. Boeck, said... Yep, those definitely need to come out. There's just no room for them in your mouth. So... next month will be fun. hahaha.

Other than that... Things at work are a bit strange. My supervisor was changed. I'm not sure why. It doesn't make a lot of sense. Seems like half of the department staff are my unofficial supervisors. I also am feeling more comfortable speaking up to Judey about work matters - pointing out where her ideas may need revisions, etc. Being off probation is doing a lot for me. Although, after the 21st I may get bumped back down to 80%. My full time status was only temporary. It sounds like it will be extended, but I'm not sure.

Found out today that my walk to work is actually closer to two miles. Meaning I walk about four miles a day. Pretty impressive, if I do say so myself. I actually walked about six miles today - because I walked to the dentist. My feet are a teensy bit sore, but the exercise was worth it. Plus, I passed Cheeseboard on the way home and got a slice of pizza for a late lunch. Yummy! I had forgotten how awesome Cheeseboard is. And inexpensive too. Also, the weather was pretty wonderful. So that was nice.

Anywho... I think I may go see Watchmen. Although, I may wait until next week. Maybe I can go see it after my dental appointment on Tuesday... mmm... A sort of reward for taking care of my dental needs - well other than the fact that my teeth won't rot and fall out. :)
