Point Loma and Expensive Smiles....

After the drama of a root canal treatment, infection and finally a crown, I needed to go to the dentist for my regular check-up.  Starting point was eighteen (yes 18) x-rays, then my friendly lead clad dentist came to discuss the x-rays and what he would like to suggest going forward.  We discussed some more crowns, replacing some very old fillings and possible whitening treatments....  I could feel the Hollywood smile appearing already.  I had to wait for the secretary to put my plan together but I didn't mind.  I was just thinking about what I would do after my Hollywood smile... boobs, botox... ooooooh I was going to be soooooooooooo HOT!!!! (yeah - I know ... I forgot for a moment, he was only a dentist).

So here comes the plan... two pages full of wonderful ideas being explained to me by the very helpful secretary, but all I could hear was... blah, blah, blah, financial plans, blah, blah, blah......  my focus and attention being drawn only to the $15,000 on the bottom of the page!!!!  Hollywood will have to wait.  I'd rather sit back and see how the other half live while sipping cocktails on a beach in Hawaii.... would definitely be cheaper!!



To the right, you can see a beautiful picture of Point Loma.  Unfortunately this had to be taken from the Internet.  On our way to visit Point Loma, we had a very inconsiderate driver in front of us. This lead to us breaking so hard that a book flew off the back seat and smashed into Will's precious camera, ''safely'' stowed away under the car seat.  $200 worth of damage (NOTE: artistic license was used when quoting the damage costs).  William was not a happy camper.  But Point Loma was beautiful and we were very lucky to be able to watch a family of dolphins playing in the bay.  This brought the smile back on Will's face...  See not all smiles have to be so expensive......
