I seriously hope this place serves coffee too!

I'm in need of recovery after a lengthy help post.

Mr.Snail - I'll join you in starting a gofundme so I can get a decent cup of coffee whenever I want it.
How does two and half thousand quid each for the machines, plus another couple of grand a year for the coffee sound, or am I being a bit on the conservative side?

Managed to sneak in whilst Derek was on a break. Looks like he's keeping out most of the regulars, perhaps he's got his instructions reversed ...

Had to stay a bit late at work but the long weekend has now begun and I plan to make the most of it. The Bar seemed a good place to start :-)

Is it Happy Hour?

Anyone got anything at 180 Proof!!!???!!! I'd like three Double Shots of whatever drink that would be, please.

If you haven't read in SETI Main's Cafe; my Tooth #14 that needed a root canal and then a post and crown FRACTURED yesterday evening... (Last night, to me...)

Happened during dinner - OF COURSE!!!!!

So, with NO DENTISTS OPEN at the time, I called 1-800-Dentist to find an Emergency Dentist open on weekends, AND that takes my Individual Anthem Blue Cross PPO Insurance Plan. :-O

Yeah, try finding an after hours, work on weekends dentist, that takes your insurance plan on a Friday night at 7:30 PM - Pacific in the East Bay Area of SF!!!... :-O

THE ONLY DENTIST in "my" area that can help me is in Foster City. From Danville, take 680 South to 580 West, to 880 South to the 92 Bridge West and then into Foster City. This is 30-45 Minutes away from Danville... NOT exactly "close" to me. :-O

BUT, I'm EXTREMELY GRATEFUL that they are 1.) Open this weekend, and 2.) Are willing to take me in on an Emergency Level, and 3.) That they DO work with my LIMITED Insurance... :-)

I ONLY found this new Emergency Dentist through the help of a dedicated telephone worker at 1-800-Dentist. THANK GOD FOR THEM!!!!! :-) Their phone and online assistance found me this place in Foster City in half an hour's pain on the phone. Through the 800-Dentist's online services, they immediately scheduled me in for the first available appointment ON SUNDAY at 9AM.

From there, I took this new Emergency Dentist's primary phone number, called it to follow up to the work that 1-800-Dentist had just performed, left a message on the Emergency Line; and surprisingly got a live call back from the Emergency Dentist's service. She confirmed the information I left on the VM, confirmed that they DO take my Insurance, (miracle of miracles in this area), AND that they will call me back from the office in the AM on Saturday - a few hours away from this posting... :-)

They are going to see if they can squeeze me in to be worked on this Saturday AM instead of waiting in pain and with the inability to eat anything until Sunday... I don't know if this means that they can save this fractured tooth with post and crown, just a crown, or worst case - if it just needs to be extracted as unable to be saved... :-O

Wish me luck.

THIS FRAKKING SUCKS!!!

DEFINITELY NOT WINNING!!!!! :-(

NOTE: My GoFundMe Page is still Up and Running... Any and all donations to this issue are GREATLY APPRECIATED! (See TimeLord's GoFundMe Thread in the SETI MAIN CAFE for details and a link to the GoFundMe Page...)

Thanks everyone for your concern and assistance.
