I had my veneer fall out again while I was eating dinner last night, so off I went in the dark to the dentist, and it got glued again. But neither of us expects it to last. Next step is a composite filling, then a crown. After having a fever all day, last night I slept better, atop three pillows, and other than a coughing fit upon waking, I've been feeling better so far today. As long as I lie in bed quietly and only eat through a straw, perhaps crises can be averted. However, it is sunny today, and I am itching to get out. How long can I voluntarily incarcerate myself? Hummmm.
I feel like at least getting a bouquet of spring flowers and looking at bunnies and chicks. I really, really like spring. But I have a lot to atone for. When I was a kid, my parents several times got us baby chicks or ducks, dyed green and blue in some cases. Then, as they got bigger, they told us they took them to a "farm" and one time, at our insistence, drove us to see thousands of white ducks on a hillside. I recognized mine immediately. Wilber looked healthy and happy, and winked at me. Yes, I have an abnormal faith in humanity. And you can convince me of almost anything. My brother was more skeptical. But you know boys, always about mayhem and plots. Full of paranoia. I listened to my parents.
I of course have never perpetrated such a hoax on my children. We did have bunnies and ducks, and they came realistically with predators who ate them, on our acre in Colorado. Luckily, we saved the last two bunnies, and when we moved, they went to a farm with children, or so my neighbor next door said. Hummm.
