Mid-Year Improve Cephyn Update
Published July 11th, 2007Revisiting my multi-year New Year’s resolutions, as I do from time to time:
1) Dentist - UGH. GOING MONDAY. I HATE THE DENTIST. It’s a new dentist, so they need to check me out and take x-rays and then I’ll probably have to come back again for a cleaning and any work that needs to be done. I HATE THE DENTIST.
2) LASIK - appointment for consultation Monday. I assume its a psychological exam to see how long I can stand having lasers shot into my eyes. That will then determine how much correction they can do.
3) Headcase - whatever.
4) Hair - whatever.
5) Activity Levels - been way too sedentary lately. Need to work on this a little. Part of the problem is that I’ve been watching less TV and playing more video game. I used to lift light weights or do pushups or whatever during TV watching. Now, I usually just watch during dinner (lifting the fork is a little too light-weight) and play games. I’ve been out more being “social” a little more often too, so that hasn’t helped either for this item. It also means I’ll need to once again work on getting way more calories in me, the low activity levels lately mean I’ve actually gained a little weight. And that’s a good thing, for me. But I’ve lost most of the muscle I built up this winter.
6) Fingernail Tearing/Biting - I am a complete failure. Rubber bands did nothing. I guess I’m down to hypnotherapy or something. *sigh* I suck.
congrats on even making the lasik appointment! i don’t even think i can do that one! the idea of lasers in my eyes freaks me out big time! as for the food thing, just hang out with me more and i will get you to eat! i am going to go for a squishie today at the kwik e mart before book group. wanna come?

I’m seconding the above advice. You have a single blog entry about Lasik and the dentist, and you’re also worried about the nail-biting? that can wait until next week or so. The longest I have missed the dentist is about a year. Cavities seem to come by surprise though, not based on how long you’ve been gone. Hopefully everything will be all right, in a Murphy (of Murphy’s Law fame) says “2 out of 3 ain’t bad” kind of way.
the fingernail thing is harder to fix, and affects me every day.
its been well over a year, 2 years, maybe 3 since i saw a dentist. 8/
