Deja vu at the dentist office today. . .

Three things that are sure to happen while I visit the dentist for a cleaning:
1) The dental hygienist, having learned that I'm a pastor, will make available to me the dossier on her spiritual life and will wait to make the most ridiculous assertions about God and salvation until she has both hands, a mirror, and a pick in my mouth.
2) The song "Name" by the Goo Goo Dolls will be played faintly in the background but not faintly enough.
3) I'll have my bitewing x-rays taken and I'll think to myself what a cool word "bitewing" is.

A lot of work to go through just to let your mother know you have been to the dentist! I am thankful for this report.
