Hot off the press

So, today is the day I get my tooth extracted. Although I have an irrational fear of all dentistry, I'm sort of relieved this is finally happening today. For the last 9 days I've had to chew all my food on 1 side of my mouth, for fear of breaking off the remains of the fragile shell of a tooth. I've been very fortunate not to have any pain, so that is definitely worth acknowledging.

My appointment is at 2:45, where I will 1st have to fill out countless forms promising to pay any and all charges not covered by my dental insurance. I may get in to see the oral surgeon around 3:00. But I've been told the procedure is pretty fast. They'll numb me with a few shots of Novocaine, extract the offending tooth, and voila - I'm done! Wish me luck.

A friend sent me these headlines from actual press outlets that made me laugh! Enjoy.

Darling,

I am not proud of this, but I have dated a few Papi drug-dealers in my day. It is EXTREMELY common for them to hide drugs in their asses! I'm not kidding - they call it "boofing it".

I know - too much information, sorry.

XOXOXO

I hope everything went well at the dentist. Now just keep your damn tongue out of the hole left behind. Come on. You know you want to feel it.
Forms aren't so bad. My dentist wants all the money up front then the forms are sent in and I get my draw whenever.
I liked the headlines.

Hope your withdrawl went well.

By coincidence, I had a withdrawl yesterday at 3.00 as well. After a couple of 'extra' shoots, it popped out like a... sorry, TMI. I followed the post-op procedures to the letter... except the NO ALCOHAL part. Slept like a baby!
