And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Scrappy, my thoughts are with your family.

ION, you know the scene in Pi where the guy drills into his head to cure his migraines? I'm starting to think that sounds like a good idea. This sinus headache has been going on for FOUR. FREAKING. DAYS.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yuck, Suzi. PITA.

I'm sure my feelings on all of this are connected to the fact that I never wanted my parents to hang around when they dropped me off at camp, college, whatever -- I just want to get ON to the NEW thing!

hivemind question. about a week and a half ago i had a temporary crown put on. should i still be having pain? pain that i'm still having to take excedrin for? it's not even really the tooth so much as it is my jaw though.

I think i'm just going to have to suck it up and call the dentist tomorrow. i'm sure he'll recommend a root canal and i DO NOT WANT.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I like unpacking. It's like xmas! I'm surprised by how much of my stuff is actually "packed" because I have so little closed storage, I have all this stuff in container store drawers that can just be taped closed and moved.

tiggy, I'm in the same sitch and being send to an endodontist for an evaluation. The sensitivity to pressure is, I gather, not a great sign.

great. yeah...i haven't been able to wear my retainers more than a couple of hours at night without waking up in pretty unbearable pain.

Still hate unpacking. I did just pack up a truck with a whole bunch of stuff for sale. I have to be very very careful because at this point, I'm like, "Sure! We could sell his crib! I mean, yeah, he still sleeps in it, but he doesn't NEED to." Which is dumb. Why sell it if he is still using it? yet there is a high to pricing, tagging and packing things.

scrappy, I'm sorry about your niece.

you know what is a great treat in an easter basket? Carmel covered apple. SO. GOOD.

Aside from the cost, I didn't find my last root canal that bothersome, for what it's worth. I am going to try to get them to prescribe a muscle relaxant, though, because the really unbearable part was the jaw pain from having your mouth open that long.

Yeah, I always found the jaw pain from the dentist the worst part.

And I am one of the loves-unpacking people. This move was the best, because OTHER PEOPLE packed me (and moved all the boxes and furniture), and all I had to do was unpack! Perfect. Though I did try to do a lot of going through and getting rid of stuff, first. But I just unpacked my last three boxes the other day, and discovered notes from high school biology class, that was like "Seriously, why do I have this??"

you know the scene in Pi where the guy drills into his head to cure his migraines? I'm starting to think that sounds like a good idea. This sinus headache has been going on for FOUR. FREAKING. DAYS.

That sounds very tempting. Luckily, today is the first day in four days I *haven't* had a migraine, so....fingers are crossed.

Scrappy, your poor brother and family. How awful, for such a young person!

that's what i've heard, brenda. cost seems to be more a factor than pain from most of the people i've heard talk about it.
