I hope you don't think I'm hijacking your thread, but I think this will fit with the current theme.

I JUST got back from the dentist. I had to get a tooth pulled, which I have had done before, so it wasn't a big deal. I sit in the chair, get some shots of nova. no problem. The doc says I'll be out of here within the hour. Like a good boy, I put on some tunes, via iPod and opened wide.

Apparently, the tooth was fused to the surrounding teeth, and the doc had to cut it in half to break it out. It took 2 X-Rays, 3 dental drill bits, 5 shots of Novocaine, some stitches and took over 2 hours!

The doc said he would give me 4 Vicodine before he started, but ended up giving me 16... My gums are all torn up and my jaw is insanely sore now. Thanks doc! Laughing

I love my dentist, she'll give me 20 Vicodin HP and a refill even if I just go in for a cleaning. Can't see her till Sept, though.

Your toe nails are in much better condition than I would have imagined. Tell the truth, I think hooves would suit you better. Much better at withstanding impact from power drills.

I don't know how long she will stay a dentist if she keeps that up...
