I have a nail question. I am going as the TARDIS for Halloween. Should my nails be blue or silver or some other color I'm not thinking of?

NYC Skin Tight Demin with Sally Hansen Multifaceted on top. I have dubbed the combo All of Time and Space. It's also my current (shredded) pedicure. Sparkliest!

Except for the fact that this going to be during the day at the office, and I'm the head of HR, that is an excellent idea.

Well, that just makes it more important. You have to set the right example.

Will your DH be there? Bonus points if anyone thinks to ask him, "Did you wish really hard?"

So the root canal is tomorrow. I could feel the temp filling coming off tonight. I'm so tired of dealing with this and I'm really anxious about tomorrow. Mostly because of my pre existing dental anxiety but also the uncertantiy of what is going to happen - is it 1 visit or 2 or 3? I think it's at least 2.

Work was very slow, which was good because we had minimal coverage and by the end of the night I was feeling it. When I was leaving someone asked me about my why I had been out yesterday and was good naturedly teasing me about not the root canal until he saw how freaked out I was looking.

On the other hand I'm actually able to get my nephew a Halloween card in the mail so it should be there before Halloween and I'm finally sending my brother his birthday present it's only 20 days late.

Suzi, there WILL be pictures!!

Ack, NERVES SO HARD, you guys. This is silly. I wasn't this nervous about my wedding (mostly because I had too many cats and historical reenactors to herd).

My fingernails look great, though.

You'll do great!

Tep it will be awesome and you'll have fun and the pictures wil be super sexy and amazing.

No root canal for me. It wasn't good from the get go, like it wasn't explained that the crown was a separate produedure which at this point isn't covered by my insurance because the root canal will max out my benefits.

And there is bone loss down to the gumline which would be - 2 appointments for the root canal, an procedure to build up the bone and then the crown. And this was being clarified while my face was being numbed for novicaine adn I saw the needle and pretty much freaked out. So the endodontist was very nice and said at this point for a variety of factors pulling the tooth is the best option. Actually he called and consulted with the dentist.

The dentist called an oral surgeon and even though I EXPLICITLY stated that I COULD NOT get my tooth pulled with novicaine alone the oral surgeon's office was not told that by the dentist office. So tomorrow I'm getting the tooth pulle,d they'll give me a Valium, they'll give me nitrious, they'll give me novicaine and then remove the tooth either by pulling or some other method. I don't know.

Then I will hae my teeth actually cleaned and I'm finding another detnist. I'm insisting on a full mouth set of x rays and a plan to take care of any cavitity found.

This dentist and his staff are nice BUT There's been a huge lack of communication about expecations and costs.

I'm glad that you're able to get all this taken care of, askye, even though it's a such a stress and huge pain in the ass. Well, mouth.
