Early dismissal for me!
...but not actually a good thing - so I got home early today, but it was because I broke my molar at work today. It was so gross and disturbing - I don't remember the last time I had chips of tooth in my mouth. Um...maybe never. Anyways, if you know me you know that I abhor dental work, but dammit, I needed it bad. Anyways, I managed to squeeze in today (up until today I was going to find a new dentist, but now he's my hero), and got it fixed up. Here are some highlights of my experience...
-he started drilling unaffected teeth
-he almost broke my jaw trying to jam some gadgetry in my tooth hole (shut your tooth hole...)
-I sat up after the procedure was over, all relieved, only to look down and see my bib covered with spots of blood
me - "I don't care how many needles you have to give me, I don't want to feel a thing"
...also, I asked the hygenist..."Do you guys provide laughing gas?", and she answered "Not anymore, it gives the dentist a headache."
???? Whaaa?????

Hmm...what indeed...
Well, I've compiled a list of possible culprits, including:
a) A mouth full of weakened teeth from too many fillings
b) trying to open a bottle of nail polish with my teeth about a month ago - did not open the polish, but I did feel like that particular molar almost got ripped out
c) corn nuts every day
d) the final straw - crispers at lunch. I felt it happen and it was not pretty.
I hate to beat myself up, but I was asking for it.
