Busy day today! Man. Busy day. But…I did it. I got my teeth cleaned AND took care of a surprise cavity. First one in a long time. I think I had another tiny random one like two years ago. It was another tiny one—20 minutes, they said, and they were right; in and out. Hardly any numbing. $75. Can’t complain about that, I suppose. Hygienist said my teeth were in good shape, too, just keep doing what I’m doing. I get tartar, but no plaque. I didn’t actually think about the difference between those two until today. I still don’t quite know, but regardless…gums were great. Teeth were clean. Trying to hang onto these babies for as long as I can.

That right in the middle of the day kinda threw off my afternoon, but thankfully I’d crushed the writing already that morning and was only like a page and a half away from my ten, so finishing up the writing was easy. Whew. And then a decently chill evening. Watched the olympics. The men’s team won bronze! First medal for them in, like, sixteen years, I think. Japan stole the gold from China on the very last rotation. Triumph and heartbreak all in one.

Night night.
