Pearly Whites

Honestly, I thought I'd be fine. I wore my fingerless glovey hand-warmers this morning, I was comfy enough at the office to actually use my desk fan, my dental cleaning went very well and I didn't even mind the sub-freezing walk to the medical office and back... but after the homeward-bound commute my teeth are chattering again. Almost 45 minutes waiting for a bus due to some accident delaying everything on the southbound trip, and naturally I didn't wear the hand-warmers AND the first bus that arrived wound up being SRO which meant I had to scrunch up and put my laptop between my legs, and I just feel awful all around. Not even my tasty chicken soup could cure this. Going to bed now and pretending today didn't happen. Although my teeth do feel nice.
