dentist

I went to the densist this morning. I had to get a crown placed on my tooth. now I dont' know if you're familiar with a crown, but it's this tooth colroed thing they put on your toothe after a root canal. the tooth is dead and basically all but gone, so they take an impression of your tooth, send it off to some laboratory and charge you $1200 for it. Now yes, insurance pays for 1/2 of it, but still $600 is a fucking lot of money. anyway, so after a month of waiting for it to be made, i summon up the courage to go to the dentist to get it cememnted onto what's left of my back molar. dr. vander picks up the crown with a pair of tweezers, sticks it in my mouth and immediately proceeds to drop it down my throat! MY THROAT, DOWN IT GOES!!! I freaked out, started choking and somehow coughed and coughed because I was not letting this $1200 little thing go down my throat. I finally coughed so hard, I expelled the tooth, it came flying out of my mouth, flew across the room and hit the wall and landed on the floor. now i'm a germaphobe, but after all that I let the guy put the tooth in my mouth. I feel like i should've gotten a discount of some sort. don't you agree?

anyway, no news on my dating life this weekend. instead i went snowboarding with a bunch of friends in mammoth california. we got a condo and had a blast. the weather was perfect, the snow was amazing and even though I had to sleep in the bunk room with the rest of the single folk, it was worth it!!

first date

okay so i went out with this guy, we'll call him James, total first date, met him on the internet. Anyway, he shows up and he's totally cute, great, finally, super cute dude. Then he opens his mouth. all of a sudden Isaac mizrahi voice comes out. yes, he has a major effeminate lilt. Which is fine, so some men have a high voice, that's just fine with me, but when he told me how much he loved musicals and then went into vivid detail about how joey and dawson should have been together at the end of Dawson's creek. And i'm not talking just ssaying that, but going through season by season including season two where Joey was always working on dawson's projects and didn't have her own identity, so he can understand why they would break up then, but once she came into her own, he thought they should've gotten back together. So my only assumption is this guy is gay, is that wrong? even if he isn't, it's weird how a guy can be so cute, so smart (ivy league education) and me not be attracted to him, HOW IS THAT HUMANLY POSSIBLE?
