I've finished the last of the thank-you notes for all my graduation stuff. What a pain. Writing the notes, addressing envelopes, applying stamps.
But it's good to get things done.
Well, I went to the dentist yesterday, and I have no cavities. This is not really a surprise. I have nightmares about getting cavities, seriously. I have this thing about my teeth. I was heartbroken in 2001 when I got a cavity. There is now a single filling on the very back of my rearmost molar that mars my once perfect teeth. I really was traumatized; it took me a long time to get over it. I'm still not sure that I really am. I used to actually like to go to the dentist, because he would always tell me what nice teeth I had. Now I always have a bit of anxiety.
All right, I know I'm weird to be so concerned about my teeth. My friends make fun of me because no matter how drunk I get, I always brush. Even when I lose the ability to stand. There is always a new toothbrush and some floss in the glove compartment of my car.
I'm a sick man.

Usually I'm really good at just drinking steadily and keeping a nice buzz, but there are some nights when you just really want to get wasted, and when you really want to ge wasted, not much is going to stop you.
I was thrilled when I got my first and only cavity a couple years ago. It meant I got to get a filling. I thought it was awesome.
