Awww, tanksCategory: randomo
Thanks for all the positive feedback on my potential project...I have to admit, I am also considering doing a project on monogomous gay couples and depending on how many I find, I might do that instead, as it is slightly more relevant to my personal research interests, but if that doesn't work, I will be sure to let you all know.
Today I am going to the dentist. Advantage Dentistry on Elmwood in Kenmore. They aparently have stereo headphones for my probing pleasure and a pill that can make you sleep through the entire procedure...I don't know about that whole thing...I am hoping that doesn't mean I have to pay extra for those pansy ass folks who can't handle a little poke in the mouth. Hah.
Oh yes...and the Bandits game. I have to say, it was less painful than I thought. I felt kinda like the first time I went to NYC though.. we got to the suite and there were all these tables with candles on them, a beautiful food spread, and a bartender who came right up and asked if he could get us anything. Free booze rocks! I felt like a star. And plus...the sing a song...or chant a chant, whatever you want to call it...and maybe I am juvenile, but BOX is just funny.

Advantage Dentistry! Those are my dentists too. I never did the whole sedation thing though. I always imagined that they did it with an IV, but I heard on a radio ad recently and now your blog that it's a pill. I wonder what it is?
Not that I'm a pansy, just curious. :)

The suite you got sounds awesome. The time I went the owner wasn't there so we had to pay for everything, sounds like it was a good time.

she got her tooth yanked and sent away within a half hour.
hehe box.
maybe lauren could do a study on homosexual animals. because our cats are totally gay. especially when catnip is involved.

Idea...Help?Category: school
Hello friends...I know I have been neglecting you all, and now I have come to ask yet another favor. I am taking an ethnographic methods class (ie. qualitative research) and I have to eventually write a 20 page paper based on interviews of a select group that I choose... I have not cleared this with my Prof yet, but I was considering using you all for this little mini study. I think that online communities are all the rage :) and this would be the perfect size to do a small scale, localized study of such a group. Of course you would be completely anonomous...I guess I have to go through some board of blahdeeblah in order to get my research approved, so it will all be on the up and up....so you get this gist? I would of couse be wanting interviews...anywhere from an hour or more that would be recorded...and I would buy you coffee or lunch for your troubles. Again, this is not a sure thing yet, but if anyone would be willing to participate, please let me know so I can have an idea of whether or not this is feasable.
Thanks!

That sounds like something that I would be willing to do. I can't make any promises cause I don't know what it is about and I don't know how our schedulles would line up.

yuckok, so i need to have a wisdom tooth pulled...i am pretty sure it should be a simple extraction...not needing an oral surgeon... however, i have no insurance and am therefore looking for recommendations for dentists who are reasonable cheap yet won't give me a staph infection. i am not one of those terrified of dentist types, but I have only been to one dentist in my whole life who went to my church and was friends of the fam, so this is new for me. Please help!

(e:lauren) was informed that the UB dental clinic was alright except that the whole process is longer due to them stopping and explaining and asking questions all the time - also a large croud watching the whole procedure... that creeps her out i guess.... lol

Ya, I think UB is a great option for students. You should see about it.

UB has a dental clinic. It may take a while to get an appointment but I have known several people go there and not come out deformed.
Which is as high a recommendation for a doctor as you are going to get the way doctor recommendations have been going on this site.

For $99 I'll do it. 50/50 chance on the staph thing though.
