“O Fortuna, velut Luna…”
Strange things happen when you listen to Carl Orff’s “O Fortuna” from “Carmina Burana”… while sitting alone… in front of a computer… playing with Dreamweaver and Movable Type and Photoshop, flipping through the O’Reilly CSS Pocket Reference. You get kind of lost and don’t realize how many hours have passed.
Maybe it’s not everyone… just me. Which is fine.
Tomorrow afternoon, I have an appointment with a dentist and a drill and some amalgam. That’s right; cavities. I feel like I owe my teeth an apology. I spent all that time running around taking care of my wrist and absolutely ignored my 6 month check-ups for 18 months. Not that going frequently would change anything — I just have cavity-prone teeth from my mother’s side of the double-helix.
I can take some comfort in the fact that these cavities are very small and forming in tiny spaces around my old (like, childhood old) degrading fillings where I really couldn’t get in to brush well enough no matter how hard I tried. And Listerine can really only do so much.
So that’s it. After that, I’ll probably go home and get straight to sleep (ok, not at 6 at night, but close to it) since I won’t be able to eat dinner tomorrow night until late (or at all).
Best to sleep through the hunger. It will do me some good.
