The teeth are crappy, and no doubt expensive

A bit of one of my top molars came loose last night. I've put it on the kitchen window sill and marvel at its small, white shininess while making tea.

Meanwhile, hot things, cold things, crunchy things, gelatinous things - indeed, all things - hurt when I eat them.

I have spoken to my dentist and am now on a cancellation waiting list. If no one cancels today then I will have to wait until Wednesday to be seen.

This is what I get for not making a dental appointment when I already knew for sure that I needed work done.
