Speed Bumps Ahead
A couple of days ago I had my dental visit. I needed my filling replaced. It was the worst experience of my life. The people were just unprofessional and it makes you really think. These people went to school all their lives to learn this stuff. You would think you'd be treated in the highest manor or at least be greeted when they come in the door. I don't think I'll be going there again. It was just the entire visit upset me so much. I've been thinking about it ever since it happened and I am still shaking my head. I guess it goes to show you....Just because you spend more than half your life in school, doesn't mean you know how to conduct yourself with the public. I'm not saying everyone...But this lady just wasn't having a bad day. Such is life- I guess. They won't see me over there again. This was actually the second time. The first time I didn't put too much into it. After Monday though I can see clearly the lady won't change. It's a routine for her. She's the only one that does fillings and cleanings and that's what I need to be seen for, so it's no getting around it. I will just move to their other branch. Ugh, more papers to fill out and getting my x-rays back is no picnic. I just did all that not too long ago. I am not happy there though and I don't think I should put up with their bad ways. So, a cause for more headache. Grr...
Wedding plans are bumpy. It seems my cousin (The Reverend) has a full August schedule and might not be able to get out for the wedding. Meaning, I need to find someone else to marry us. YIKES! It seems like such short notice. He's going to let me know if he can change around his schedule to accommodate us. Then, I feel bad, because he's flying into NY just for that reason and heading out the next morning. That's kind of crazy. We'd reimburse him of course, but still kind of crazy. Ah, I don't know. Things are also so crazy...We just need to sit down and figure it all out. It's so hard to plan a wedding online. Although, I did read about this one lady that did her whole wedding online and got major discounts on everything. Which, I must say is very inspiring. I just want everyone there and everything to run smoothly. I'm getting some help through a friend, so that's good news. We were looking at wedding dresses online and she was able to pick out something I really liked, all by knowing three things. One- type of sleeve, Two-the neck design, and three-the skirt length. She brought up something I saw two years ago that really "wooed" me. Great Job! Anyway, it was fun to go back and forth and look at each others taste in designers. Now if I could just scoop her away, bring her here and we'd shop until we'd drop! That would be a blast! More than likely though I will be shopping by myself to find a dress, which I need to get cracking on. Like I said before there is lots to do. Wish me LUCK! I'm going to need it!
sorry about the dentist. was it a hygenist or an actual dentist who was rude to you? or the receptionist? because those hygenists just have to go to a year or so long program at tech school - definitely no requirement to go to college or any of that. like you said, not that that makes you smarter or a better person or anything, but still. you would think these people would at least be nice. then again, my eye doctor is a complete asshole, as were ALL of the people at the office(s) where I got my braces done. (which they actually did a horrible job of, because i see that the gap is starting to come back....horrible, horrible thought. i'm gonna need braces/other ortho work done in a few years. wtf?!)
anyway...all that wedding stuff is crazy. you guys should just elope. :) jk

It was an actual DENTIST who was rude. And like I said just b/c they went to school for all those yrs. to learn that crap doesn't prepare them to work with the public. It doesn't mean they're ready to interact with the public either. Grr...
Exactly, you WOULD think they'd be nice. They suck! :(
That awful about your situation,too! =O you wore braces all that time and now the gap is coming back? All because they didn't do something right, prolly. Did you have to wear a mouth piece after getting your braces off to keep them in line?
You go to these people (eye doctors and dentists) and TRUST these people with your eyes and teeth and they screw up...WTF?
