It's nuts

It cost me 500 for my dentist to lengthen my two front teeth
But that was classed as cosmetic so it might be different

Is that related to your avatar?

The avatar came as a result of the teeth

That's what I was wondering. How do they lengthen a tooth?

To become a rabbit of course.

Mind you I had to have something that could be called lengthening on 2 of my front teeth after I'd had an accident on my bike and smashed them. They sawed them down a bit and stuck artificial new bits on. I got it done free because the dental insurance policy covered accidents. I have to pay through the nose for everything else but when I complained they said it would be double without the insurance. They also said the teeth I'd smashed might go black and fall out, but they didn't. So I was scared for a while until a few months had passed and they said I'd got away with it. BB isn't the only one who is reckless on wheels.

I'm about to try out my Doner Kebab kit from Aldi. You're only supposed to cook the meat (which is beef, not lamb, by the way) for 8 minutes, which sounds a bit dodgy to me, especially as it's frozen.

^it's probably already part cooked. Basically the cooking you'd do at home would be reheating and searing.

Mmmmm....I hadn't thought of that, and now you come to mention it, it does look as if it's probably part cooked.

Currently taking the opportunity to self-assess how bad my APD is.

Plenty of stressors; caffeine, sleep deprivation, not on usual hormonal pills thus an unguaranteed state, in an open road and relatively crowded.

Not fast paced. In an OK mood. Relaxed. People are OK. To a point I can bug them.

But still; for the last 3 hours or so, I had written down 17 syllable letter sounds that I either mistook hearing as or switched. ¼ of which happened more than once.

Video game difficulties applied to pizza delivery jobs.
Easy - Just deliver the pizza and get paid.
Normal - 30 minutes or it's free.
Hard - 3 minutes or it's free.
Nightmare - I've already called the cops. If they catch you, it's free.

I kind of thought Antisocial Personality Disorder couldn't apply to Edna.

6½ hrs in;

My rate of "getting names right" and served a resident right regardless if there's an error and "having any errors" regardless if I served the resident or not is practically ratios 1 to 2.
I'm aware of the overlap.
Meaning odds that kept mishearing is way more than twice each name I get it right.

Currently, I'm also accompanied by one NT guy, who, coincidentally, was my 1st grade classmate.
Couldn't remember him, he couldn't remember me well either. Our moms knew one another, and I just clearly recognized his elder sister attending the same Highschool as I was at some point.


So I bug this guy and asked if he also misheard or misunderstood.
Obviously the obvious, easily misspelled and misheard utterly unique types mostly don't count.

This self assessment is supposedly "in my favor". Especially since I've seen of these countless names too many times, typed all of them thousand names in fee occasions.

Yet and yet even as simple and as common as, well, a name let's say, "Grace" -- I mishear it as "Criss".

Plenty of alternatings like initial Ts becoming Ks, Rs becoming Ls...

And too many missing initial syllables. Florante as Orante, Galvez as Alvez, Castro as Astro.

Didn't matter if it was common or not, and it's not like it had an easily misheard with an existing alternative like with Fernandez and Hernandez either!

It's annoying. Really, really annoying.
And I would be putting up with it for the another next 7½ hrs.
