'Heart Of Gold'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Kat, I sympathize. I have TMJ and a regular cleaning can leave me in pain all day. I try to load up on pain meds before I go, too. Sometimes, if I'm having serious work done, I'll get the dentist to prescribe a sedative to relax me.
Owen is reading to Olivia from a comic book before they go to bed. My heart is like to burst.
Ohhhh... a sedative would be nice. Tried the topical stuff which didn't work and I took Advil when I got home. I will advil beforehand.
I do think it is penance for all the times I didn't go.
ION, aw -- remember that show Buffy??
Thanks for that Jesse. A nice reminder...and ohmygod...how can it be that long ago?
Guilt shouldn't be part of the dental experience. The pain is enough.

Also maybe a Xanax or Ativan for beforehand? The dentist might even be able to prescribe it. I think that would help tremendously.

I felt like this when one of my cavities needed a freaking root canal.
I am sorry that the benzocaine-whateverocaine gels didn't help.
I went to the dentist I did specifically because they were recommended for those scared or dentists or extra-sensitive because it'd been so long for me. It took two applications before my gums were numbed but the amazing hygienist really made sure I was comfortable before going in. I am never going elsewhere.
I haven't been to the dentist in too long. My cousin is a dentist and I love him as a person. But fear. Eeep.
ION, Liz Cheney should not be on my television so much.
Oh crap, I have the dentist next week! I'd better start flossing...
I meant to go to the dentist before the end of June. . . but I didn't.
In annoying and stressful news: I've had my payments to the gas company set up to go out mid-month for years. YEARS. And suddenly, they've started going out 2 days before I get paid - instead of the day I get paid. Why?
I am scrwed this month but I hope I've fixed it up for the future. (I should set up a reminder that I need to check this, shouldn't I?)
Meanwhile, HBO disappeared - apparently, I forgot to send in my agreement. And it happens that with HBO I also get a new dvr. This means I have a tivo AND a dvr.
I can record twice as much. . . right? Or will I need a different tuner for that?
Oh my god! One of my friends from elemetary school just got in touch with me on FB.
