Our Frustrated Curmudgeon
About a month ago I was doing something bad.
I was eating those conversational hearts that we got on sale after Valentine's Day and I was biting down on them. I cracked a tooth as a result of it.
Now move forward in time about a month. I had been nursing that cracked tooth being careful what I ate and how I ate while waiting to get home so I could get it fixed. I had a dream where I was using a toothpick and the entire tooth came out and the gum was mostly healed where the tooth belonged.
Then last night while I was flossing my teeth part of my cracked tooth fell into the sink. Was the dream a premonition? Who knows.
Today I spent an hour on the telephone trying to find a dentist that would see me and take care of the tooth. I found out the most dentists in this area take Fridays off. Most dentists are so booked up that even in an emergency they can't see for four weeks or more.
I finally found a dentist. Really nice people in the office and a nice caring dentist. I think he will get my business in the future.
So my comment on health care. If health care reform will get us dentists that will see people on Fridays and see people with urgent dental care needs then I'm all for it.
