Today's Conundrums

 A quick on tonight as I've spent far too long staring at a screen today. 

But here are some modern-day conundrums. 

1. How can the dentist charge nearly $200 for a checkup and clean that takes approximately 15-minutes? And yes, I do get that rent, insurance, hiring a dental nurse, equipment... but still. Thankfully, my health insurance extras covered a lot of it - but still...

Lucky he's been my dentist for nearly 20 years, and I've sent him some new regulars over the years. 

2. Why does a day of what I call fiddly admin feel rewarding? A colleague and I had to send out nearly 200 emails between us today. A long story. Lots of manipulating spreadsheets and other stuff. But it felt good to do something mindless. 

3. Why do I want to be able to do pushups on my toes? 

4. Is it wrong to want to give your Uber driver 3 or 4 stars for no other reason other than they have B.O.? Due to tight timings, I caught an Uber back from the dentist. The driver was very nice. The car very clean. But he ponged. I gave him 5 stars regardless, but...

5. Is it law that when your cat crosses your keyboard you have to give him a kiss?

6. Is it okay to take blue cheese to a friend's place?

7. Should I let the book group know that so far, we don't have any Australian content on the list. This is not a good thing. I'm not trying to massage the list. 

8.Why do I always have a split lip when I go to the dentist. Is this Sod's Law?

9. Why do I have the urge to clean out the cupboard in the spare room? Is this a sane idea?

10. How can I talk myself into doing my hip rehab exercises. Why is it so hard to get down on the floor? 

11. Why do I still have the desire to fly off to Bali and do a sound healing accreditation? 

That will do.
