Need a Hand?
Your Next Project Starts with Brownstoner
Just a regular appointment but it’s been a year and I think I have a filling to re-do. I like my dentist but I think he’s a little old school. He hasn’t gotten onto the pain-free dentistry train. Maybe I need to switch.
(Altho I took my kids to a dentist once and it was SO nice and SO cool and SO fast. But the bill for one cavity and two cleanings was $2k and I thought, um, I guess I’ll go to my painful guy)

What do people in China call their good plates?

I have a dental appointment tomorrow. Why can’t they knock me out for these things? I have so much anxiety over these appointments.
go to my dentist! there is wine for you in the waiting room, he will give you laughing gas even for just a simple cleaning, and lots of celebrities go there!!! it’s in soho.

Was the pole vault accidentally discovered by a clumsy javelin thrower?
“Yeah well neither is a bicycle but you’re still gonna look like an idiot the first time you try to ride one.”
Ok, fine. I’ll do the obvious:
My caucus usually in pain when I hit a big bump while cycling over the Brooklyn Bridge.
I just want to say one thing about race. In college, I had a wonderful professor. I loved her — she was brilliant, inspiring, funny and helped me a lot with writing, researching, thinking about life, growing up. She was a black woman who I respected enormously. She liked me too and once casually I told her that I had never had a conversation with a black person until I was 18. She never said anything when I told her that but some time later she told me she was very touched by that, moved by that. I never quite understood that either. At the time.
So I was on my way to have lunch with some clients today, and a stripper wearing a Hustler Club t-shirt gives me a pamphlet for the hustler club. Not 15 paces later on the same block some woman tries to get me to sign a petition for the ASPCA.
I know it’s an annoying cliche, but only in New York.

I have found that most dentist offices use different ( i.e. -easier) methods to general cleanings, fillings – even root canals
what are you supposed to get done tomorrow?
I had my finger im one once. But that was 34 years ago.
