Errand-running
Oct. 21st, 2004 01:43 pmI made an appointment to go to the dentist. I've had dental insurance since January and I'm finally getting around to this now. Probably because I really don't like it when my gums bleed, and that's something that only happens when people scrape my teeth.
I think it's telling that I made the dentist appointment before I took care of getting my car inspected. Somehow mechanics are more terrifying than dentists? Although if someone gave me the phone number for a good mechanic within walking distance of somewhere familiar, I would probably call right now as well (that was what happened with the dentist--Darxus's root canal inspired me, and he said the dentist was good). As it is, my mechanic-choosing method is... imprecise. Last year we picked randomly out of the phone book. This year, I'm planning on taking it to John and Nick's, because they're on Mass Ave between Central and Harvard and have a sign in their window that says they do inspections. But I don't really know anything about them. And I procrastinate.
Other things I haven't been doing: taking my winter coat to the dry cleaner to get the pockets mended, taking my green dress to the cleaner along with it, getting my hair cut. I am not big on running errands.
