Thankful Thursday

[mdlbear]

Today I am grateful for...

• Mastodon. For which my ID, as of earlier this afternoon, is @ssavitzky@indieweb.social.
• Debirdify. Which will probably stop working a week from now, because muskmellon. But it worked today, so I now have a list of the mastodon accounts of everyone I'm following on birdland who's put their mastodon ID in their profile.
• Antibiotic eyedrops. Which, unlike antibiotic ophthalmic ointment, is something I can actually use reliably and safely. No thanks to a scratched cornea that made the aforementioned antibiotics necessary.
• The call from the receptionist at the endodontist's office when I was totally lost and half an hour late. No thanks to $G maps, which sent me around in a circle three times because it didn't mention that the turn I had to make was into a parking garage.
• The dental CAT scanner that enabled my dentist to find the bone damage that has been eluding X-rays literally for years. No thanks to the damage itself, which is going to require a root canal next week. No thanks to my right temporomandibular joint, which is also giving me trouble.
• My dental insurance, which is going to bring the cost of that procedure down under the cost of having my cats' teeth cleaned. Slightly under.

I'm not sure how I feel about teeth in general. Maybe I'd be better off with a beak?
