I had my 6 month dental cleaning today. I had to go to the Lockport
office as opposed to the extremely close Romeoville office. Its not
that far of a drive, though. Should have been 10
minutes……………should have been.I had this vision of the office being in downtown Lockport, I don’t
know where I got that idea from . So, I passed the office right the
hell up and wound up in downtown Lockport, which is really neat, but
not where the office is located. Eventually I turned around and headed
in the right direction. I got to the office right about 11:55, so I was
about 5 minutes early.While I waited I read a sometimes boring, sometimes interesting article
about sleep in Time. The whole sleep thing is very frustrating. There
is so much we don’t know, and as you might know, I a very curious
person and need answers for everything. I read about half of the
article and as it turns out, sleep is very important. Every animal does
it. It ranks up there with being as important as food and sex. But,
with so many unanswered questions, it can be a bit frustrating.I got called into the office about 12:10ish. The dental lady person
assistant cleaning my teeth, but I will spare you the
details…………after all, its somewhat gross and not interesting in
the least.After the cleaning the dentist came in. Everybody in this office is
very nice. Its 3 dentists that share 2 offices. I don’t know the name
of this dentist, but he is the one I have had more than the others. He
is cool, and I think he might be gay. Anywho, everytime he sees me, we
always talk about the Cubs. He walked in and asked me if I was done
with my Christmas shopping. I said no and he said “well, are you gonna
get a new right fielder for the Cubs?” We talked about the Cubs for a
minute or so. He looked inside my mouth for another minute. He said
thank you and happy holidays and left. This is what he gets paid for,
to walk in the room, talk baseball and look in my mouth, all in about 2
minutes. What a job!
