- Sounding dirty: Went to the dentist today for the first time in a long while and was orally violated with x-rays, cameras, cheek spreaders, and sharp hooks a-scraping. I learned a few things. Namely that I’m a “grinder”, apparent by the wear on my rear molars that has made them flatter than normal. This is could be caused by my bite, which is “open” meaning my front and back teeth touch at the same time. Normally when you bite down your front teeth should touch and your back teeth should have a gap between top and bottom. Apparently, I also grind my teeth while sleeping. The upside is that my teeth are feeling nice and clean albeit a little sore.
- Visited the print shop to have some envelopes done. Note to self: if I ever run a print shop it should have an organized reception area for customers with places to sit, available paper samples, and a catalog of past work they have done. At the bare minimum there should be someone on hand to guide the customer through the process. I asked so many questions I felt like I was doing their job for them. I need information on what services are available, the cost, and examples of past work. I told them I’ll see how they handle the envelopes before I bring them anything else since some of their paper cutting seemed a little ragged on the few samples available.
- Deja vu all over again: 1967: “United States officials were surprised and heartened today at the size of turnout in South Vietnam’s presidential election despite a Vietcong terrorist campaign to disrupt the voting.”
