Today I just got back from the dentist and found out I need a root canal and crown on my bad tooth. Lotta pain in my mouth and wallet. The dentist felt sorry for me and gave me a 10% senior citizen discount, but it's still going to cost me well over $2K. Oh, and in case you are wondering, my Medicare insurance doesn't cover any of this.

my dads on medicare, they basically support the bare minimum for you to continue living
theyl fix whatever you got from getting worse but theyre not gonna bring you to 100% again

Muffin Man, it's over so take a deep breath.
Three finals to go. I am so glad I won't be having the same shop instructor next semester because the drag of this semester and we could have learned more without her.

Ain't that the truth. Anyways, I just came back from the dentist and CVS $2139.60 poorer. At least the meds are cheap with my Medicare card. Not really a lot of pain, but I'm taking the hydrocodone anyway just to get high.

Word.
I personally enjoy the feel of opiate painkillers, and for this reason (and my compulsive tendencies), I will never try H, or seek out a bottle of painkillers that hasn't been prescribed to me. I just need to work on crashing my bike and getting root canals more often I guess.

We have a few instructors but she was brought on this semester for our class. It felt like almost everyday I had no idea what the hell was going to happen because all kinds of random **** pissed her off. Then she told me I'm except from the final weld test because I passed the certification test but now I'm taking it anyway? I spent the last month practicing something else...

Today I ordered some stealthy black zipp decal kits to replace the loud white ones on my 404's.
I would like to convey my deepest sympathies to your bike monies. Gone too soon.

I think learning to track stand at red lights might be my "new" new years resolution. I'm good at doing the slow roll but the moment I come to an actual stop, I have about 3-5 seconds.
Getting back into skateboarding. There's a cozy 3' mini at the local park and I'm learning to ride transition. I feel like a teenager again and it feels great. I even have two coworkers to session with. Skagway, Alaska rules. Who wants to come visit?
