ON LIVING FOREVER
I undertook some long-postponed maintenance this weekend, and the results were good. First was an eye exam, which I hadn't had in over three years.
Result? I am not going blind. In fact, I am exactly the same amount of myopic/astigmatic as I was three years ago. So . . . if I stay away from flying awls and exploding meth labs, I should be OK.
The other was a trip to the dentist. It's been a long time, y'all. I haven't had a regular dentist in YEARS. I don't hate the dentist -- I've never had a bad experience, but it was never a priority.
I brush, etc., but I was really afraid that my mouth was going to be a chamber of horrors.
Result: Fine. The guy wants to seal a couple of my back teeth, but it isn't pressing. See you again in six months, doc.
Anticlimactic, huh?
