got a good grade at the dentist today against all odds 😇 it's been uuuhhhh 8 years since my last check-up (i know, i know, i have a final boss-sized mental block against dental care), but i have NO new cavities, only a tiny bit of gum recession, and LESS gum inflammation than my last visit! all i need is a basic cleaning, to have a couple existing fillings touched up, and to be fitted for a night guard. the hygienist said she was "surprised and impressed" that my mouth was so healthy, which the dentist herself attributed to "very good home care." 😌😏

Good!
For storytelling. They're portraying adults being... adults.

So, going into work tonight I, quite by accident did the one thing every adult (quite rightly) told me to never ever do.
I don't even know how to explain why I did this. The train had been a half hour late so I was already way behind, even though I'd texted my coworker and warned him about it. The train was actively so late that when it arrived people applauded.
So, there I am, at Union Station at midnight, hobbling down the sidewalk on my little crutch when a woman gestures for me to hold out my hand. She had a fistful of.... something. It was very dark. And I.... Look, y'all, I would be so easy to murder. I held out my hand.
"Peppermints!" she said, "For you!" and dropped about a dozen peppermints into my hand. To be clear, this was the dead of night in a very sketchy part of town.
"Thank you! How wonderful!" I said, genuinely delighted.
There was already a peppermint in my mouth before I realized I'd broken that single cardinal rule hammered into my brain from earliest childhood. I had taken candy from a stranger.

What a fucking night. I hung out with one of the bands for half an hour and missed the first 10 minutes of Hardcore Superstar's set, I got pictures with them, I had all three of their CDs signed, I was given a t-shirt as a gift, I smoked my first cigarette ever with the guitarist and drummer, all the members wanted me to hug them, I was called beautiful and his favourite person ever by the bassist, I was declared their biggest fan and the best person they've met. Maybe life is good
