i don’t hate my dentist, he’s actually a really nice guy (we used to belong to the same Y, even, and were in aerobics classes together, which was amusing). i don’t hate the dental assistant folks either, they’re all really nice as well. i just hate, you know, actually going to the dentist. they never have good news for me, and then my teeth hurt all day from people poking them with sharp tools.
of course my teeth had been sort of bitchy with me lately, and i thought i had wisdom teeth coming in, so i sucked it up and went in this morning for a checkup. i wasn’t wrong. now i get to have oral surgery! HOORAY!!! …*sulk*.

- a programmer lives there now with a bunch of gear so i am reasonably assured that the electricity is good.
- it was rehabbed three years ago with new appliances (including a dishwasher!) and furnace and plumbing so that should not suck
- the street is v. nice and the view from the front windows is pleasant
- no central air but i can live without that
- plenty of street parking
- about four blocks to the blue line damen stop
- pleasant for biking
well, presuming that i do not fail the apartment application process, which is i suppose always a possibility, given finances.
wish me happy leasing!
