Journal Entry

Thursday, 13 August, 1998 18:02

I did go to bed shortly after finishing my entry last night, and I pretty much slept all night long. I felt much better when I got up at 05:30.

My dentist appointment was at 08:00, and I got there a few minutes early. I overheard in a converstaion between the receptionists that the dentists' assistant was caught in traffic and would be late. No big deal.

She finally arrived, and I was seated in the familiar chair, waiting for the torture to begin. People seemed to be fiddling around a lot more than normal, and nothing was happening to my mouth. That's OK, I'm a patient person.

So... I went on to work. It was another very busy day, lotsa patients, one after another. I think that we did seventeen patients before noon, which is more than the number usually done in a single day. And another fifteen before I left about 17:15. Again, very tard. Legs hurting, I guess I need to make an appointment to see about getting them fixed.

Karen and I are going to go to a movie tonight, we haven't been to a show for quite a while. I can't remember what she wants to see, but I know that I don't particularly want to see anything, so it's up to her. I just hope that it's something that will keep me awake...

Again, tomorrow...


Thanx for being here!
