ALL BRIBES ACCEPTED
at the dentist's office. Took Hugh to a new dentist today. The old one is now too far away, the new old one turns out not to take our dental coverage (somehow we didn't realize this till after we went once), and so we were forced to plunge into a new relationship. This guy seemed to have the psychology of Hugh down: fast, cheerful, and lots and lots of bribes. Hugh ended up walking away with a new toothbrush, a shiny pencil, two prizes from the prize "bucket" PLUS the hygienist slipped him two sheets of stickers for being a fellow Libra (go figure). Like son like mother: I picked up a magnet on the way out!
