I had an appointment with the dentist yesterday, which was good timing since yesterday was also when my benefits went into effect. An attractive young dental assistant greeted me at the front desk...

AYDA: Brian?
Me: Yes.
AYDA: I'll be cleaning your teeth today and I'll be with you in just a minute.

Hmm. The natural urge to look attractive to people of the same age and opposite sex sort of becomes impossible once you realize they'll be scraping the plaque off of your teeth within moments of meeting you. I sat down in the chair and she informed me that I was due to get x-rays taken. I watched her struggle to put the little x-ray things in my mouth as I opened as wide as I could. I think she was confused to watch me put what seemed to be a lot of effort into barely opening my mouth.

AYDA: Wow, you have a really little mouth.
Me: I know, I know...small mouth. I'm sorry.
AYDA: Do you have a really hard time flossing?
Me: Uh, not too bad.
AYDA: How can your hands fit?
Me: Um, I don't know.
AYDA: That must be really tough.
Me: Well, it's always been like this.


Oh Hippopotamus, how you mock me.
