Stevia...

Finally got some. Not bad as a sweetner. If you overdo it though, it gets the same chemical aftertaste as an artificial sweetner.

Good in that it's zero cals.

Bad in that it seems to make me thirsty. Hmn.

Also?

My Cat is an attention monster. She's learned the fine art of 'get in Mom's face and meow in just the right tone that wakes her up'.

I will have to increase my sleep shields...

Two Thousand, Four hundred and some odd dollars later...

Oh god. Two credit cards are howling in pain right now.

I have on the temp crowns while we wait for the made-to-order ones to come in. It doesn't hurt, per se, but it itches. I HATE that.

Almost as much as the bill.

I will never again let anyone get control of my money and life, meager as they may be.

God, this itching is driving me NUTS.

That was weird...

But kinda nice.

I went to bed early because of the itching teeth (they seemed to have stopped with that nonsense now), and just got woke up by the phone. I didn't get to it in time, but the caller left a message.

It was my dentist, calling to make sure I was ok.

Like I said, weird, but nice.

And yes, I am ignoring that suspicious part of my brain going 'But he called at 9:45 at night!' and assume he's just a very conscientious doc.
