Saw someone at work back from a career break, was surprised to see them and said ‘hi David’ but their name is Richard, gonna suffer cringe attacks for months

Just call them a different name 5 or 6 times today then make a joke of it tomorrow

did he correct you or just roll with it?

I got quite cold and wet last night and this morning and now I just “can’t get warm”

I tried putting the heating on but that was immediately too hot stuffy. I’m now wearing a bobble hat and have a blanket. Still can’t get warm

Rolled with it, I knew something was wrong but it took me all morning to figure out

How long does a nerve block take to wear off (lower back molar, any dentists on here, or Dr/ recent dental patient @epimer).

Feel like my face and tongue are getting bigger and spongier, not smaller and expected it to be wearing off by now (it was administered 2 hours ago).

The good thing about boring British men’s names is you can at least have a stab at guessing someone’s name correctly

Just remembered another Netflix show I watched when I was ill: Blown Away. It’s like GBBO but in Toronto and about glassblowing.
(So Great Canadian Blow Off? I dunno)

It was really good through my medicated haze anyway

Several hours for me. Like, five.

That was six injections though.

Woke myself up coughing twice today.

haven’t bought any mince pies yet this year

This was just one injection, total inferior nerve block. Got droopy face and everything. I need to do a conference call in half an hour, and I’m speaking in front of 150 people at a pre-dinner conference thing at 5.30pm- might see if I can get moved to the after dinner slot (thus bumping the celebrity speaker.)

Looks like i’m going to have to buy a new iPhone and i’ve got the right fucking hump about it

my stock excuse for avoiding these when I was in the office was that I had ‘too much work on’ and then spend the entire time on dis.

fucking yes

How so? I really wanted the XS instead of the 11 but guess that option has disappeared

I’ve got a jumper dress on and it was the Wrong Decision

my name is boring but not on the list, I’m in the clear
