2:40 pm

2:40 p.m. That's the time. I make and keep
appointments all the time. But 2:40 just stands out
to me. Maybe it's because it's not 2:30 or 2:45. But
then again, maybe it's because I'm getting a wisdom
tooth pulled.

Oh boy! Not looking forward to this appointment.
Don't get me wrong, I like my new dentist. And I know
he'll do his best to be sure that I'm numb before he
moves forward with the procedure. Maybe it's
anticipating the pain that lingers after these dental
appointments! That's probably it!

Nevertheless, it draws closer and closer, literally,
by the minute.
