Quick Seattle Trip

I took a quick trip out to Seattle to be the “responsible adult” to get Robert to and from the oral surgeon who was extracting his wisdom teeth.

We knew this was coming, both his Alexandria and Seattle dentists had said they would need to come out sooner rather than later.

Fortunately, he is class-free on Fridays this quarter and so scheduled the extraction then (otherwise, he is a classy guy).

While Friday afternoon was really rough on him, by Friday evening, he was able to get back into his whimsy with the propeller hat.

Brooklyn has a propeller hat too, but was not wearing in when they took this photo to share with Robert’s Seattle support group showing he was doing better.

(As we waited for the Lyft to the appointment Friday morning, he got a great compliment on the whimsy of his hat from a passerby. I think the dental folks at least smiled if not laughed when he showed up wearing that.)

And I had to get out and enjoy the fantastic weather when he was clearly on the mend. I did help to make sure he kept up with pain meds the first 24 hours or so before he headed back from the hotel to his apartment and I stepped out to enjoy the U District in perfect weather.
