Tooth Jewelry

Hello, peoples! We hope everyone is doing well, putting together some exciting plans for the weekend.

I took yesterday off work, since I had to visit the dentist and get some other things done around the house. We've got fun family in town this weekend, and next weekend's booked, too.

I'm headed back to the dentist at lunchtime today to get a filling, and it sounds like the doc wants me to get braces (again). Apparently my bite is so bad it'll wear away my teeth in an unnatural way over time. Soon you may see me wearing some fancy tooth jewelry, but... hmm... maybe I should wait for Obama's promised healthcare reform.

So I completed my first day of study-buddying on Tuesday. I met for about an hour with a young lady working on an application essay for a college scholarship. She recently made the honor roll at her high school, so I was surprised that she can't spell simple words or conjugate common verbs.

This is the final day of Sue's second rotation. Hooray for Suester! Tomorrow is mostly out-processing and training for Rotation #3.

Here's my latest cartoon.

PS
We can't wait for the end of winter. At least RI's winter hasn't been as bad as...


...it gets in the Jemez Mountains in New Mexico.

And if you haven't seen this, do take a minute to watch it.
