Now, does everyone want to know how wickedly awesome I am? I mean, like so amazing that people gasp and stare at the amazingness that is me.
So so awesome, that I had to get 2 root canals today. Not one my friends, oh no, I go big or go home, and I got 2. They were running a deal, 2 for the price of one, so I figured why not, lets do another one while we’re in there.
Obviously that’s not the case. Me, the cute little girl that has never had a cavity in her life who everyone hated, went to the dentist recently because of tooth pain. I didn’t know what said tooth pain meant as I have never had tooth pain, because again, never had a cavity. The dentist comes in with that solemn look on her face and said you have some cavities. I said I do? And wait…some? meaning…more than one?! She said oh yes, you have 3. One bad enough that you need a root canal, and two that can be filled, well one is really borderline. I laughed, scoffed even, and told her she must be looking at x-rays that belonged to someone else.
Well, as luck would have it, in a years time, I got 3 cavities. Really. They filled the 2 the other day, and alas, the one borderline one started to hurt. So when I went in today to get my one really bad one, he decided that he really should do both. So he drilled and scraped and made my face hurt like no ones business today. And of course it wasn’t 2 for the price of one. It was, well, we all know how much a root canal costs. Even before the crowns.
As I sit here in this ever increasing pain, my body is trying to fall asleep. I don’t know if it’s from the stress, or the extreme amount of Novocaine, or my body just wants to sleep to heal itself. All I know is that I’m having flash backs to Drug Studies from my freshman year at Ithaca and can’t keep my eyes open.
But – I’m off to take my lovely little to his very own dentist appointment. Maybe they’ll let me sleep through it. Eh.
