what a weird day. weird for no other reason other than i feel GREAT. and that is weird considering today i still have no voice, i had a pretty bad weekend and i got my first filling ever.
i go to a dental school. they are slow but they are cheap and do WONDERFUL work, because they are in perfectionist mode and a professor checks everything. so today my dentist is taking his boards and asks if i want to get a filling for free.... two weeks ago, pre-flu , no big deal. today i'm thinking FUCK i can't quit coughing i can't talk and i got a lot of work to get done. but if i don't show up he automatically fails. so i went.
and the weirdest thing happened. ive gotten three shots of novocaine, i have some weird contraptions and a dental dam in my mouth and this guy is drilling the shit out of my tooth and im trying not to cough so much that my eye WEEPING and it's running down the side of my face into my hair and then ... everything is fine. i stop coughing , my eye stops tearing & i think , i wish i could just sit here all day and let this guy take care of me and my teeth. like, if this was all i had to do for the rest of the week, it would be bliss.
maybe novocaine attacks your brain like prozac. i'm not really sure what that shit was about. but despite shitty people and my shitty habits and the shitty flu i feel motivated and not as sick as i have been since ...wenesday?
i think some of it was that i had time to think or not think at all & being no negative thoughts because i didn't want to be ms. grumpypants while my mouth was being pried opened for 3 hours ... everything good came in. i don't allow that to happen very often.
i want more fillings. that was AWESOME
