Today is Fat Tuesday. I could have planned anything for this day. I could have planned a trip to New Orleans, for example, to celebrate Mardi Gras. I could be on Bourbon Street right now watching the parade. Sadly, I am not there. I am living my life and seeing my dentist twice a year. As I prepared for my dental appointment this afternoon, I took my toothbrush and toothpaste out of my desk drawer. I clean my teeth before I go to the dentist much like a homeowner cleans the house before the housekeeper comes to clean. I have been at this job for a long time. I think that orange (my favorite color) toothbrush and toothpaste are probably older than many of my coworkers. Do they even make Close-Up toothpaste anymore? Does toothpaste expire? Whatever! I had a good dental report. Happy Mardi Gras day!
