How did your morning go?

Morning... oh yeah. Two hour teleconference wrapped up in one hour. And then the second of a string of visits to the dentist. As well as the cleaning we're working on my gag reflex -- if we can get that under control they can then take x-rays.

Had a bit of a breakthrough on my talk for a conference a couple of weeks from tomorrow. I had a difficult transition from one point to the next, and it finally came together.

And this afternoon had a chat with the marketing manager. I'm well known in my industry and they want to take (more) advantage of that and suggested I might start running a blog (on the corporate website). It could be fun, but we'll talk more later.

Hard to beat that for job security -- but then again, my role model for this job was let go a week or two ago. (I can't imagine what they were thinking! This guy was famous when I first hear of him in '76 and remains so today, and if you think of him you think of his employer.)

How are you today? Better?

Digital x-rays are easier, four bitewings with that and I wasn’t gagging.

Look, just take a little note pad with you, and when you think of a joke write it down.

Soon your gag reflex will be under control, and you'll be a model patient. It's probably just nerves anyway.

Dentists are the easiest audience in the world. They never hear any new material.

I won’t go to “him and his employer.”
I’m about ready for beddy!
*sigh*
I got more done than I thought I would, today. But not enough to soothe my soul.....
