T-Rex: Today I am excited! Today I did not forget my dentist appointment!
T-Rex: Today I will be the one to impress my dentist with my personal oral hygiene!
T-Rex: I spent an hour this morning making sure that my teeth were sparkly clean. I practiced in the mirror saying "Of course I floss after every meal", "Of course, Doctor! I floss after every meal", and "Floss after every meal? Of course!"
T-Rex: I practiced until I got it RIGHT.
Utahraptor: Well, do you floss after every meal?
T-Rex: Not hardly!
T-Rex: But every time I go he asks, and every time I feel like I let him down - personally, you know? Like he has twenty kids and I'm the only one who doesn't floss and he doesn't know why.
Utahraptor: That's very sad.
T-Rex: It gets sadder! Sometimes I imagine he's bought books on how to get your kid to floss, and he's tried everything the books say but still, I don't floss - and he's started to wonder if there is something wrong with HIM. Has he failed me as a dentist? As a FATHER? Where did it all go wrong?
