new problems

1. We are going to see Powderfinger in Bendigo on Friday. What's the problem? I hear you say. Apart from the fact there won't be much option to see Powderfinger anywhere in the near future. Well, the problem is we have a new puppy, Kenzie and Charlie to look after that night. This will consume me for a while. I imagine we will have to come back from Bendigo on the night; but I am not sure we can leave the triumverate of terror alone for 7 or 8 hours...
2. I broke a tooth. Well, it just crumbled. A molar. It's the one I had filled again last year, they warned me this might happen. Have you ever tried to get emergency dental treatment in Melbourne on a Saturday afternoon? Well, don't. I waited three hours at the dental hospital and got the option of either pulling it out there and then (or rather, having it pulled out for me) or going to a real dentist next week. I had so much to do (a lecture a day Mon-Thurs) and so little money, I have put it off till Friday. It doesn't hurt, but it feels really weird. I am going to try out a new dentist - Smile Solutions - ironically a name I have trouble saying in my present 1/2 a tooth less condition.
3. Concerns to do with work (students etc not colleagues) which it is not right to discuss here.
4. I think that's all for the moment but it's enough to be getting on with.

Hope everything goes well tomorrow and Charlie is happily distracted with her sleepover party.

October 1970, everyone had their arms out in the air, from Barbra to, um, whoever that is on the left, to Thumbelina. This is from the Sprin...
