On the day I shall have an item delivered from our One true online retailer and weekday sponsor.

To whom else has God sold naming rights for days of the week?

And you thought Tuesday was a grace of our turning Earth.

Since I had a molar extracted last week, there remains an open wound in my mouth where the tooth used to be, and in which food might lodge. This requires a liquid-ish diet of food without things in it. (Worst possible kind of thing: popcorn.) It also requires instrumentation for washing out the wound gently. This took me to a Walgreens in downtown Minneapolis, where a pharmacist told me I needed something that my surgeon never brought up: curved-tip dental irrigation syringes. Which Walgreens does not have, but Amazon offers in plentitude:

The list goes on, verily: longer even than a CVS receipt.

The best part is the reviews. Examples:

helps in feeding baby birds that fell out the nest and r scared and won’t eat

So long as you arent using them for epoxy they work fine

I got these because I have to measure out precise amounts of tint to add to a topcoat I’m using to finish off some cabinetry. It’s very small amounts, so using a measuring cup or even measuring spoon wouldn’t yield consistent results. So, these syringes should do the trick nicely.

Perfect for feeding found baby birds as they grow. You will need to snip off the tips to make wider aperatures as the birds get big.

Looking forward to my first dove chick and/or cabinetry job.
