leedyI bought a new toothbrush yesterday! Normally, this wouldn't be particularly exciting, except it is a PULSAR toothbrush, and I only discovered it was battery-operated after I opened it (why, yes, I did buy it in a hurry). It has many strange plastic vibrating bits and is worryingly reminiscent of the kind of thing you can buy in the Gents' in Mulligans these days. Apparently it has magnificent tooth-cleaning powers.
I have also made an appointment for my *cough*first dental checkup in about three years*cough*, which gives the PULSAR, ooh, about a fortnight to make me into a vision of shiny-toothed loveliness who doesn't need any fillings and won't be given out to for not flossing often enough. In fairness, I don't think there's anything drastically wrong with my teeth, but then again, that's what B. thought before a bit of one of his FELL OFF, necessitating costly root canal work. Also, pain. Eek.

*runs away and hides*
Actually, Brian's pain was from the horrible broken tooth, AFAIR the actual fixing bit was just rather unpleasant.
