THE LEARNINGS
Sep. 17th, 2024 07:19 am*audiobooks definitely more engaging than music for me at the dentist
*haha except when the dentist did the noisy things I couldn't hear what was happening in the book
*which was fine for what I was listening to; I was never going to remember all those names anyway
*at one point the dentist office music played 'Let It Go' from Frozen, which is a lot longer song than I remembered
*long enough that it felt like it had been playing for A WHILE when the dentist said 'is this from Frozen?'
*and the assistant agreed that it was, and tried to summarize the movie's plot for the dentist, who had apparently never seen it
*one of us did not remember the movie very well (I think it was probably me)
*so at that point I was listening to the book, the music, and the conversation between the dentist and assistant; my brain was VERY HAPPY with that level of distraction
*but, I mean, I had no idea what was happening in the book
*also it was good that the appointment was shorter than I expected, because my brain can only keep that up for a small amount of time before it crashes
*which is why the afternoon was NAP TIME YAY!
*new blanket = very good for naps; A++ napping blanket; 11/10 would nap again
