So,  I’m going to be starting to write about some of the things I’ve learned thus far in my career. Some will be useful, others purely for entertainment purposes, but all of them “learning” experiences. I believe that our experiences make us who we are, and good or bad, they were necessary to get us to our current perspectives. And without them, we’ll that’s just fun to ponder over drinks sometimes.

Anyways, back to my point. Since I anticipate a bit of use (and I’m lazy) I like to go for the multi-box packs. I like to try and match the color palette of my house too so I try to pick the most neutral set. The problem is there always seems to be that one box in the set that stands out. So you get two or three boxes that are similar in color (like gray/blue/brown whatever) and one that just doesn’t belong, like pink. I’m actually quite curious about this and will likely look to Google for the answer at some point, but really, why do they do that? You take a perfectly good set and throw one completely contrasting box in there. It’s probably to try and lead people to buy the individual boxes so they can get the colors they want but in the end I broke down and due to my frugal upbringing, now have a pink box of Kleenex on my desk at work.

I got my teeth drilled today and once again opted for the laughing gas. I think I’m getting the hang of it now too because I didn’t end up completely losing it and giggling like a kid this time around. You’d think that it might encourage me to take better care of my teeth but I really don’t see that happening.

While getting the work done, I asked Dr. Grimm (his real name) if they had some sort of teflon for teeth. In today’s world of high tech, you’d think we could ditch monotonous tasks like brushing. He said DuPont does make a sealant, he also noted that there’s this other invention called floss that works pretty well too. Touché.

So for another year or so my teeth are all good.
