Avoiding bad news

I was going to post more bad news but that can wait.

Three different people today told me I looked great.

Well, four people… if you count the dental hygienist saying “You take great x-rays!” But as I told her, she did all the work; I just sat there with my teeth clenched on cardboard.

That feels pretty good. I mean, the people telling me I look great. Not the x-rays, so much.
