D.O.P.-T.

I survived another dental visit. The place had a makeover; some of the furniture has been removed and all the colored surfaces have been repainted purple. The doors are pale purple. They even have new X-ray bibs, with collars - and they are purple. Meanwhile the shopping centre where they are located has ripped out all its grass and replaced it with wood chips and drought-tolerant plants, which are looking a bit stunned right now. (It rained lightly most of last night.)
