I Am An Idiot

[2sp_]

I missed my dental appointment today. It was just a check up, and somehow I got it into my head that it was tomorrow. God knows why because I know my dentist only works on a Tuesday and a Thursday.

I feel so stupid. And really guilty.

I'm going to have to phone the surgery tomorrow and grovel.

[Psybbo]

You'll be fine(d) :-(

[jno]

all you can do. With any luck, your dentist won't actually be reduced to penury. Mine never has been when I've missed appointments.

I hope it's not like my dentist where they fine you for missed appointments

[mrs_overall]

Mind you , last year I dragged Youngest Junior Overall out of school for an opticians appointment. We arrived early - a day too early in fact

[2sp_]

It's entirely my own fault. Only discovered it when Mr P had a look in the diary for something.

I can't believe I did that. My dentist is such a darling too, I hate to have let him down.

I will now punish myself and feel guilty until I speak to him tomorrow. And probably beyond that too.

[jno]

if there's any punishment to be done I'm sure he'll do it

[Psybbo]

Ouch, jno

[Wharton]

Brass neck it. Turn up on Thursday and act daft :-)

[B00]

Mine phone's AND texts me to remind me of 'em, no chance of ruddy forgetting, they hound ya!

I'll know I'm really in the bad books if he discovers that I need root canal treatment...

[2sp_]

Wharton, no need for me to act daft...

[berniecuddles]

had a text from mine yesterday and today for thurs morning appointment

[mrs_overall]

jno, I am now thinking of the film Marathon Man where the dentist drilled into the nerves of every tooth in the guys mouth to get him to talk,
I will have nightmares tonight

[jno]

true, you don't want a dentist throwing you in the canal.

mwahahaha

oh hello mrs o, two minds with but a single thought

[2sp_]

I'm not even pressing play on that, jno!

[aelmpvw]

a grovelling apology is necessary, that two minute check up has cost your dentist twenty quid

[2sp_]

I know that I've cost him money. I've never done anything like that before and I do feel terrible. I fully expect to pay for my appointment as normal.

[weecalf]

Dentist usually ring the day before to confirm the appointment chew or false that's the question ,don't get down in the mouth about it .What did he extract you to do arrive hours late .

[Psybbo]

First offence, he'll let you off xx
