Quebec probably isn't that far from you, if you prefer "trois, deux, un, go!" to "three, two, one, go!" for a change.
Believe it or not, my dentist was asking me how I was doing w.r.t my brushing and flossing habits. He changed the subject after I reminded him of how the tooth came out.
Thank you!! No, I am not in any pain at all right now, unless the dual mental anguish of being suddenly without that tooth and simultaneously knowing that I will have to loosen my pursestrings counts. I think it is a pretty reasonable price, too. Actually he said a little under $3,000, probably, and then he usually gives me a 15% discount on his labor, which would be on top of that, I suppose. I am so glad to hear that you are happy with yours. It sounds so extreme and scary.
Drove back from San Diego yesterday. Had a great time with DW's family over the holiday weekend.
We stayed at a very nice hotel in La Jolla. Our lowly Camry rubbed elbows with the BMWs/Benzes/Cadillacs in the parking lot. And I think we looked a bit underdressed to the crowd dining at the hotel's upscale restaurant.
I can't think of a bad hotel in La Jolla. And I'm surprised that your car wasn't turned away at the city limits...
I live La Jolla adjacent - we sometimes eat at George's (restaurant on Prospect) or Alfonso's (across the street from George's.). My husband LOVES to watch the expression of the valet folks when we drop off the 17 year old dodge pickup. Pretty funny next to the mercedes and Jag's. But then again - the true local La Jollans probably walked or rode their bikes.
Next time you're visiting San Diego/La Jolla - check out Barbarella's over near La Jolla shores - fun restaurant with a casual vibe. Dressed up folks are the exception. It's not in the "downtown" La Jolla part (Prospect/Girard) but north of there, below UCSD.

Well, I am taking this occasion to do a bit of fortuitous market timing.You can minimize that risk of loss by selling and buying back as immediately as possible (assuming you are buying back the same ticker)...
