Because that’s exactly what it was yesterday afternoon. Been having a toothache for a while now and finally got over to Newtown Endodontics to get it taken care of.  It didn’t take all that long and the Doctor was gentle and the surroundings pretty serene. Made a difference to me.  Sue drove me over there and that let me allow my mind to drift on the way.  Sort of a Zen state that you have to get yourself into to deal with these things. One of my biggest problems is my history with medical illus­tration. I visualize all too clearly the pulp being removed from the center of that molar and the small circular files penetrating into the root itself. Widening the lumen and removing the tissue that has any feeling. Porous bone through which the syringe with anesthesia has to reach. I could do a great painting of it… But the theater of the mind will suffice. I’m glad that it is today instead of yesterday and it is mostly over now.

Yep — When you under­stand how things work — sometimes they are larger than life… yuk.

I was napping on the loveseat yesterday evening post root canal and a line of showers and thunder­storms came through and Sue got to see a double rainbow. That’s pretty sweet. I didn’t see much more than a bunch of overcast by the time I got the camera there.  I did see a really red tinted sky. It was also gone before I could take a shot. Weather effects are often very fugitive.  Sue got the camera just in time because she caught it — though faintly.
