lovely boxes

Today I went out with my boxes to shop them around.  I flunked out on finding a placement but earned $180 on six of them after giving one away.  So I'm seven less and nearly two hundred bucks ahead, although I spent some on the way home.  It's just cool to go out shopping and return with extra.  I have a couple places to return to as the people I needed to speak with were unavailable and a couple other places to try as well so I'm not out of options yet.  I might even have more made by the time I go out again.  I don't know if I'll go today or wait and try on Friday or something.  One of the locations is only available 6-9pm I think.  Oh but Friday is stupid hallowe'en...  Well we'll see. At any rate, selling six of them like that, for $30 each, is very encouraging and maybe if I just hustle them on the street I can sell the rest that way.  I will certainly try if I can find the right weather for it.
my need for a dental cleaning is going critical. I'm trying to do what I can at home but I might not be able to get around needing a pro.  I just don't want to deal with finding a dentist nor return to that awful clinic I was using.  They were just so...  cold?  Yeah, cold.  They acted as though they really wished I would just shut up and be invisible.  Given that I battle dentist phobia in the first place and social anxiety in the second place, this didn't help at all.  So I need a dentist.  I think I'm getting bad breath from the dirt hiding in there.
I brush and floss daily, and I use a waterpic every other day in the tub, but it's not enough.  I've also got some kind of swelling at the root of a tooth that's been root canaled years ago.  That's odd.  Last time I had this problem the dentist said it was caused by not having clean enough teeth.  Odd.  So I'm worrying about how to get my teeth clean all by myself.  Scraping with a fingernail...  Not working as well as a dental assistant with her tools.  I'd say, yeah, even a bitchy one will do, but they don't shut up either.  They start the conversations!
In a cafe, trying to sell some boxes, I was chatting up a couple of interactive fellows in the corner.  At one point I said Dan's age of 59 and they were like 'wow, he must be in good shape to get a wife 30 years younger than him!"  I liked that!  They didn't mean it as a compliment or flattery, they actually thought I was that young!  So now I know, I"m looking 30.  I kind of thought so but how do you confirm that?  I can't go around asking, that's pretty vain, and anyone would still say something lower than they think just to be polite.  Ergo, you can't generate an honest opinion.  That was not generated, but volunteered innocently so I know it's true.  Very nice.  I feel about 30 too.  Occasional stiffness but mostly my health has really bounced back from going paleo.
