My quarterly Botox appointment was today, which meant an afternoon jaunt over to Columbus. Had a lovely drive there, with minimal traffic and a good podcast. The appointment went fine. Then a less lovely drive home: 30 minutes longer, three or four lane-closing accidents, and dumbasses in their dumbass cars everywhere. My soundtrack this time was some angry punk rock.
Today’s drive did bring home the fact that it might be time to find someone in Dayton who can do the Botox. I get it injected into my masseter muscles to help me not clench my jaw. It’s pricey but been so worth it. Before I started getting it done a couple of years ago, my jaw would ache from constant clenching, and I’d have a decent headache most days. So I need to figure out if I must go to a dentist to get this kind of Botox, or if some kind of Botox clinic can do it. I just know I would prefer to not make this quarterly drive to Columbus again, if I can help it.

This showed up in my Instagram feed again. Next time I make it back to England, I really do need to check out the Statue of Lucifer art installation at Holy Trinity Church, in Marylebone, Westminster.
