So I have to have another wisdom tooth out, according to the dentist. I had a poke around the back of my mouth the other day (you do these things when you're bored!) and felt a ragged edge on the upper right row of teeth, right at the back. I called the dentist to forestall any panicky situation like that which occurred with the last wisdom tooth, which fell apart before I even knew it was decayed. He confirmed that there's some decay there, and being of a practical turn of mind - "there's little point filling the thing, as you can't actually reach it to clean it, and even if you did you'd only be back in a couple of years (at most) with more decay further along the same tooth row...", etc. - he decided to rid me of the problem in the easiest (and, ultimately, cheapest) possible way. I suspected that this would be the outcome, so I'm not really surprised, but doing the wisdom tooth thing again so soon is a bit annoying. Mind you, he also cleaned and de-scaled my teeth, so I was glad of that - particularly once the job had actually been finished. Many jokes occurred about coffee intake and how brown it makes your teeth.

The course went well last night - lots of fit men striding around with their shirts off as the students did posture evaluations on each other, and fit women, not required to undress themselves to quite the same extent, were either looking on in lust or looking good themselves. The actual course work was a bit glossed over in light of all the sexual tension in the air, but it was still useful in terms of learning about potential back problems from exercise. I even managed to ride home without killing myself, which I consider a bit of a bonus.

Tonight we have multiple aerobic classes. The first is occurring because one of the instructors we know is having her evaluation - in terms of whether or not she's a capable instructor - tonight, and may need the moral support. The second is occurring because I need the practical hours in some kind of ‘different' aerobics class from the ones I normally do. In the hour in between, unless I can get a lift from one class to the other and back again, there's going to be another 10km bike ride, just to keep the muscles loose....

All right, so I'm an idiot...!

P.S. It turns out I am an idiot, too. My back had a bit of a 'twang' while I was warming up for the first of today's aerobic classes - result, no aerobic classes for today.... A break was on the cards, anyway, I think. The uplook from this was that I got to ask that certain person to come out with me and a bunch of others this weekend - and she said 'yes'! I am currently flying, and it's very incovenient to try and keep typing like thi...

At least you're a happier idiot than last time...

I respectfully decline to be thought of as an intelligent person - that would be wrong...!
