2007-07-30 — Calendar entry — I make an appointment

I was feeling very virtuous on this day. I'd made appointments for a whole set of routine medical appointments (things like the regular lung CT scan, a prostate check and so on). There was a time when I'd continually put off doing things like this and I was feeling very 'grown-up'.

I suddenly decided to make a dentist appointment — to make it a full house. I'd not been to a dentist for almost five years, since I'd had all my remaining teeth capped. This was the first time in my life that I'd ever made a dentist appointment without being in absolute agony — first time when I'd ever made an appointment without anything being wrong as far as I could see.

The dentist was going on holiday but could fit me in the next day so long as this was just a check-up and not a request for urgent treatment.
