fourteen hours and counting

Oral Surgery, Take Two:

I will never, ever eat anything resembling sugar again. Ever ever ever. I will drink hyperfluorided water (and how the hell do you spell fluoride?. I will floss after looking at food for too long. I will--

Really really try to sleep without freaking out.

If after today I never see a dentist with a bright grin and a large bottle of novacaine? Will be far, far, far too soon.

*curls up in ball* ... *gets back in chair*

Redid the index2 page again at http://seperis.illuminatedtext.com yesterday. Yes, I'm sure that's a shock to everyone. I may redo it again. Possibly before three AM at this rate.

Breathe. It's just a dentist. With a really, really big collection of very, very long needles.

*HUGS*

I look like a demented squirrel, my cheeks are so mishapen from the whole wisdom teeth experience.

The only intelligent thing I've done all week was take it off from work. Go. Me.

Dentists are on my archenemy list, with landlords and AOL. *nods* Hope you can get some sleep.

We should start a club. A club of endless pain.

I was writing NOTES to the guy at the store to buy behind the counter items. He was snickering. He was pretending my handwriting was too bad to read.

...I hope.

It huuuurtttts. Stupid drugs not kicking in fast enough.

*winces in sympathy*

I fell off a bike last year and broke a front tooth. The dentist liked to play those Nature CDs (the kind with bird calls). I've never been able to listen to one of those again.

oooooh. I can understand the feeling.

*winces* My gums hurt. A LOT. I have no idea what he did back there besides the obvious, but I also know I never, ever want to know.

*pets Jenn* It'll be okay.

Just breath deeply and think of how Lex would deal with a dentist. Trust me, it makes you feel a lot better to imagine wiping out their personal records if they're not very, very nice. *g*

*dies*

You, darling, are the perfect picker-upper! I read this about an hour before my appointment and started snickering.

*hugs*

I could _hear_ your panic so clearly, I admire you for being able to write at all! Believe me, most people go through a similar terror-fit when facing oral surgery ~ I used to toss my cookies before every dentist visit, even for simple tooth cleaning. (I don't suppose it can be pleasant for them, either, being the most feared and avoided professionals in town or country....)

Big hugs and back-pats, soothing noises and thoughts of security/protectedness.

Aww, thanks. *hugs back*

(I don't suppose it can be pleasant for them, either, being the most feared and avoided professionals in town or country....)

I do pity the poor guys. In abstract theory. IT"s just when that needle thing with the pusher comes near me, I forgot and start doing my best impression o fa very tall lump of wood wearing heels.

Never, ever again. Please God.

Makes you wonder what evolution was thinking when it came up with teeth. Oh, wait, it was hoping that we would be all dead before dentists come up. :)

Blame the monkeys! Stupid evoluting monkeys!

Poor baby. Never eating anything with sugar. Does that include chocolate? I have some here with your name on it.

I'm sitting here at the internet station in our hotel, whiling away until it's time to check out and go home. Home. Home. There's no place like home.

I'll be on AIM tonight, I think. Catch you later.

*blinks*

I don't think chocolate counts. I really, really don't.

*winces*

Shut up, gums.

I'll be on AIM tonight, I think. Catch you later.

*grins* VERY cool. I'll see you then! Glad you're back! *hugs* Or on your way.

My sister in mouth pain! Just think, at least yours is a licensed professional!

*curls up with Hel*

I want more drugs now. Much, much more.

*hugs* Awww, poor Jennbear. No wonder you weren't on last night. Was hoping to talk to you, but decided to at least leave you a message, to let you know what is going on. We lost our cable and internet because of finances so I just cancelled it. I'm moving in with a friend in her dorm room instead of getting an apartment. Cheaper. Closer to work. And I won't be alone. Anyways, I just wanted to drop a line. Love you, doll!

PS Drugs? Yes, I know drugs. On some right now in fact. Stupid nose. lol
