open up wide

last year i switched dentists from the singing musicals dentist (down at the embarcadero, if you're looking for one) to a stanford alumn over by union square. went to the dentist today and had one of the best cleanings ever. really great cleaning, with plaque flying everywhere and kanye west crooning in the background... and then mr. dds walks in and asks what i'm up to, where i'm working now, etc. and it turns out he knows my boss because she too goes to him! funny, yet slightly awkward. ho hum.
