I've needed and had a root canal. Volunteering for that shit? No. Cringing from the description? No, too.
Actually, I woke up in the wee hours morning in a lot of pain. I was still so asleep at first, I couldn't actually figure out
where
the source was. I immediately burst into dry sobs (hey, I was mostly asleep,) thinking it was my tooth again. And then stopped into hiccupping laughter when I realized a) not tooth, b) just the usual bad cramps in my lower abdomen that comes every fucking month.
I think I'm still a little traumatized by that stupid tooth pain.
Oh, also? Michelle Obama needs to stop wearing the big stick-on-looking things on her clothes. I want to pull a Karen (from Will and Grace, y'know) "Oh honey, NO!"
The single one she had on during her speech didn't bother me but it looks like someone got carried away tonight!
Speaking of tooth pain...
I have needed and had a root canal, and also wanted to die. I have also seen many people who have clearly had teeth rot and fall out of their mouths, and I have to wonder how they stood the pain, because I totally could barely work. Clearly these people went through this and eventually had the tooth die. How did they stand it?
they have to do it.
Yup. And it saddens me. I have a delusional friend who thinks I should run for an office (yeah, no, she just gets measured me because I know how to talk to her and she's delusional. And I have no idea where she gets this idea) and I keep pointing out that I'm fundamentally unelectable because I won't talk god. I won't lie that way.
Kerry looks less like an Ent today than he did in the 2004 campaign. Maybe his hair is shorter. (Or possibly it's just that he's no longer omnipresent on my TV.)
How did they stand it?
The nerve isn't affected? Seriously, I had broken, falling apart shit teeth through genetics and being a dumbass and not visiting a dentist for a decade. No pain. I FINALLY went to a dentist, got buildups in prep for crowns, got a crown...and then the nerve blew up under the 5/6 month old new crown. Crying insane pain. My mom was offering me her vicodin, for crying out loud.
they have to do it.
Yup. And it saddens me.
On the other hand, I get enraged when people reject (for instance) Obama out of hand because he mentions god. I don't doubt his faith, and he damn well KNOWS that if he wants to be elected, a majority of American people still want to hear that he's down with G.O.D. (name that movie reference!)
he damn well KNOWS that if he wants to be elected
This is what bugs me. Not his faith, which I don't challenge. Just that the majority finds a lack of that faith suspect and EVIL.
