I think we can call this a successful day

I have: two newly repaired teeth, an apple pie, and a Plokta.

The dental work was quick and easy, as these things go, and largely paid for by the insurance. The pie bakery is near my dentist's office. The Plokta was delivered by a uniformed government employee (though, rumor has it, not the one who brought the previous 38), and left in my mailbox, so that was easy. Thus far I have read both covers and the first page and a half of the inside; it's a summer special issue, which seems to lend itself to such.

Now, yoga, stretching, and to bed.

Wow, surface mail to New York seems to be faster than surface mail to Croydon.

In practice, small things sent at surface mail rates from London often reach me by air.

That sounds like a successful day. :)

Did you tell the dentist you were getting a pie? I told the nephrologist last Friday that I was eating at Anita's and she insisted I not go. I told her I'm in Burke twice a year to see her and eating Sonorran food twice a year isn't going to hurt me.

But it does sound like a very good day -- fixed teeth, apple pie, and Plotka!

I didn't tell him, because I wasn't planning to eat it until the anesthetic wore off. I had the first slice a little while after I got home tonight, or more than 24 hours after the dental work.

If my dentist tried to stop me from eating pie, I would go looking for another dentist.
