I Haz A Hurt

I had to go to the dentist today. It makes me all tense inside to sit in the chair and get the drill going on inside my mouth. So, I prepared. I prepared with some anxiety medication and I took my iPod so I could hear Tupac. I breathed the gas.

It took FIVE (5) shots to get my jaw numb. It took longer to do the numbing than it did to fix the cavity. I had a hard time keeping my mouth open that wide, so they had to put the bite block in my tiny mouth. My jaw still hurtz.

And to top that off, my iPod died during the process.

I could use some pain medication. Ibuprofen does not come close to helping. AND, I have to go get Chatty Cathy. She's going to want to talk four hundred words per second and my jaw hurts and I won't be able to participate in the conversation.

DL does not get home until 9:00pm. I will have administered Benadryl by then if Chatty isn't careful.

Tupac at the dentist.. I love it! Maybe they should just air it for you... or at least have an IPOD doc, so yours wont die!

I hope you feel better! I hate going to the dentist. I am thinking of trying one of those sedation dentists (xanax pre-med). Love that you were going to relax to Tupac!

Friends, I took my Xanex pre-visit. I should have taken more. I'm still hurting. Lipstick- I'm right there with you. If we had sedation dentistry here I would be doing it.
