Keeping in mind that it is only 11 am my time.

Didn’t work today. Could have worked today, but turned down sub job because I had a dentist appointment at 10 am.

Got up early to start dinner (slow cooker beef barley soup).  Ran out to the store to get a couple of items I forgot when I was shopping yesterday. Got everything going, then headed out to my appointment.

Arrived at the dentist’s office at 9:45. Discovered that I don’t have a dentist appointment today. I have one tomorrow.

Call substitute teacher calling person to let her know that I *can’t* in fact work the half day she gave me for tomorrow, because, um, I have an appointment that I thought was today. Feel sort of stupid.

Head to JoAnn’s to pick up some crafting supplies. Stop at random jewelry store to look at wedding bands.

Head home. See piece of chewy ginger candy in purse. Eat ginger candy.

Feel something crunch in my mouth that shouldn’t be there. Panic. Pull over to side of road to spit out candy. Look in mirror.

Discover that ancient silver filling has fallen out. Panic again. Call dentist’s office. Receptionist assures me that I should be fine until tomorrow, so long as I’m not in pain.

Sigh.

On the bright side, it’s a good thing that a) I went to the dentist recently, b) I have to go back to the dentist to have two small cavities filled, c) this happened before and not after my appointment, and d) I still have dental insurance for a few more days.

Still, pretty crazy.
