Malenky's days as a staple-remover are numbered. He needs both his right canines out. The good news is the quote was a thousand dollars less than what I was originally ballparked. The bad news is it's still a number you can count in thousands, just one less. No overseas vacation for me this year.

I've been on-hold for any spending because this Маленький придурок needs dental work of an as-yet undermined value. We go in on Thursday to find out what the damage will be.
