They sent me about forty pounds of paperwork to fill out for myself and my daughter for tomorrow's appointment with a new dentist office.
I filled it all out nice like until I got to the last three questions, the first of which was, and I quote: "Do you want the very best dentistry we can offer for your child, or do you want to just get by?"
I just stared at it like maybe I wasn't seeing it right, then wrote "Seriously?" on the little blank line.
Then I jogged the stack of papers together, put them down, and called it a frickin' day on the project. Then I got up and fixed myself yet another mohito.
Stone cold sober now, looking at it, I stand by my answer.
The fuck kinda question is that supposed to be? "Tell you what, doc, let's just go with the half assed treatment instead of the best you can do for us. I mean, her teeth will probably fall out on their own in another year or so anyways, so fuck it. "
I mean, really,
You ask me a question that dumb, I'm afraid I'm gonna get offended and call it game over at that point. I'm sorry, I am seriously, seriously not into that level of stupid game playing. Is the guy saying I have a choice? Can I really choose to opt for the "Half Ass Treatment Plan"?
So help me God, I will ask them that tomorrow if they press the issue.
