ugh

done with dental work now, unless i have to go back for some high-point adjustments on the right-side fillings. some things i learned:

- my dentist, doctor fong, is not related to the Mr. Fong of Mr. Fong's Chinese restaurants, although he has been to the restaurants, even as a young kid growing up in the area. he says the quality has declined lately.

- i always thought i could stand up pretty well to torture. well, if the torture involved dental procedures, i guess i couldn't. i told doctor fong all about the defense plans for minos corva and he didn't have to ask twice. or once, even. and that was with the novocaine.

- something else that i have forgotten.
