Today I made a dentist appointment. I haven't been to the dentist since August of 2001. I know this because the next appointment was supposed to be February of 2002, and I put it off because I got married that month and couldn't handle any more stress. Thus began my ability to skip dental appointments, and I just never went back.

This is bad, of course. At that point in time I had no cavities or fillings, and I'm sure I won't be so lucky this time. The incredibly painful toothache I had Monday night tells me this is so. But it also tells me I don't get to put it off any more. Besides, in another year Charles will need to start going, and I should set a good example. Or something.

Come Friday, I think I'm going to be very sorry I don't drink. ;)
