Wibbling, Woes and Work
Mar. 2nd, 2005 10:16 amI really didn't want to go to the dentist this morning because i knew the end result was that it would probably cost me a lot of money and aggro.
Right.
We'll see about the money, estimates seem to work it so that my insurance will cover most if not all of it.
They have to re-do an old root canal and put a new crown on which they can do all in one go.
But it's a 3 HOUR APPOINTMENT. Yeesh. It's scheduled for early next month.
*sigh*
I knew it was coming. I have been noticing a change in a molar that he'd already warned me was working up to something last year. As long as it wasn't bothering me, i put it off because i had other work to be done, replacing older fillings.
Anyway.
And the bank account is in the red.
How did that happen? no big deal, i have overdraft and i get paid tomorrow. My income tax refund will be along soon as well though that's saving for when![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
gramie_dee comes over, eta late spring.
Put my film in to be developed and will get that tomorrow. In addition to Bruce Jones pics that may or may not have been too far away for the flash, there are actually a few last shots of London from early January! A couple from the Wallace Collection, the statue outside it i think and a sneaked shot in the armour room. I can understand the 'no photos' rule for things that are light sensitive, and even then, why couldn't you take a no-flash photo if there's enough light? But a room full of metal? ah well. I broke the rules and took a sneaky shot anyway, without a flash. Hope it comes out.
Have you noticed? i haven't been bitching about Java lately. *knock on wood* it's not as if it isn't still frustrating at times but it's a different kind of frustration. The kind when you can't make the damn thing work as opposed to "i just don't understand this shit". That's not to say i don't understand *why* it won't work and i still come up against Java stuff that i don't understand. But i am getting it more than i used to and over all that's a good thing. At least the frustration of trying to make something work when it won't is familiar. That's the life of a programmer. or as my mother used to say "Why programmers go grey" (substituting your profession as needed).
