Spending Myer money

Shopping at Myer. Urgh. What with Christmas and a recent birthday I have accumulated a plethora of gift card voucher thingies. Going by dollar value my collection of Myer money was the pick of the bunch. I decided to spend it on something fun as the Christmas/birthday presents it was intended to be. After a visit to the E-Gs I decided a Nintendo DS Lite might be the go.
Gosh it's hard to buy things at Myer. For a start the console games section is in between 2 service desks so you're not sure if you should be approaching the Toys people or the more pricey cameras/computers/big television people. Loitering with intent doesn't work. I did have ample opportunity to study the staff behaviour which helped fill in the time. There was one chap who was talking to customers and selling them expensive things. There was an older woman who kept attaching herself to the first chap's customers although he appeared to have things well under control (note to self: do not buy anything from pushy woman). Then there was the one on the phone and the one on a break. All gifted at being too busy to respond to a direct approach. I gave up and returned the next morning. No other customers - they had to serve me! Ha!

So now I have a DS and am busy improving my brain power.

Dental Drama

Hmmm. Long time no blog. No good excuse really, just been using bandwidth torrenting Top Gear. As you do.
So anyway, one of my front teeth became sensitive. It didn't hurt or anything, I was just aware of it for a day or so. Then it felt loose. Seriously so. To the point where I had a little panic that it was about to fall out so took the obvious (but unusual for me) step of going to see a dentist. He took a picture and sent me on to another dentist. Joy! 2 dentists in 2 days. My new dentist was actually an endodontist - a breed of dentist of which (until 2 days ago) I was blissfully unaware. Perhaps it was just as well that I arrived not knowing I was about to have one of my root canals thoroughly scraped out. I guessed that a fancy type of dentist I hadn't heard of would be expensive and I was right there. Oh well.
