It's 2004. You're 8 years old, sitting in the pastel-colored waiting room of Happy Smiles Dental. The carpet is teal. The plastic chairs are bubblegum pink. There's a fish tank bubbling in the corner. A Barbie coloring book is on your lap. The air smells faintly of bubblegum fluoride and strawberry ChapStick...

Cartoon network or PBS playing on a small boxy TV in the ceiling corner...
