Thanks again to everyone for your support. It means more to me than I know how to say.

Never heard from the dental students the dentist was going to contact, so I called the dental office again. Receptionist doesn't have any news for me, and the doctor will be out of town for a while because of a death in the family. She said she'd ask him for any info and I should call back next Tuesday. Depending how that goes, I may just call Howard University's dental clinic that day and make my arrangements that way. Since I don't really know any of these people, it does not matter to me whether I get a dental student this dentist knows or not--I was just hoping that his getting in touch with someone would shorten the process.

I suspect that more than my gums are infected right now; I have had that run-down feeling you get when your body's busy fighting something for you. Walked 2.5 miles yesterday anyway, after spending most of the day in bed. With temperatures way up in the 60s, how could I stay home?

On Wednesday evening there was an igloo still standing in front of a local apartment building. That igloo had collapsed by yesterday afternoon. Trees all over town were covered in buds. Today's high temperature here was comfortably above 60, but the cold front has sent temps into the mid-50s now. Very windy now. Slight chance of snow tomorrow. I don't care what the calendar says--this month is obviously March.
