It's a theoretical lesson plan. No actual students.

Oh, good.

Why all the crazy customers tonight?

I am down a tooth. The oral surgeon's office was fantastic. They were totally - let's get you valium! Your boyfriend is in the waiting room? Let's bring him in! We have Pandora! oh? you brought your own music, well what do you like we'll play it while the valium stakes effect.

And then the tooth came out in like 2 minutes. Also I think between the Valium and the nitrious oxide I feel asleep at one point.

I have to wait at least 4 months for things to heal before thinking about implants and I'm totally going back there. Between all the dental practices I've dealt with in the last few weeks they had the best communication about what was going to happen and what I should expect. They are even going to see if my insurance will cover the nitrous.

Will held my hand during part of the thing, I think until they went to the tooth pulling and has me set up in the living room. He had to go back to work and deal with clients but right now I'm just waiting for the novicaine to wear off and I'm eating soft foods and only slightly freaking out when I feel the space betwen my teeth.

Maria, I'm so sorry Rob's parents treated you like that, you aren't the cause of his death. And I'm glad you've met someone who makes you happy and treats you well.

Yay askye! I'm so glad things went well today.

Thanks again, all. I love this place so much.

I'm so glad it went so well, Askye!

askye, that is excellent! I was back to eating regular food on the opposite side pretty quickly -- but be really careful to not let anything poke-y, like a tortilla chip, get your extraction site. That's a bitch.

Yay askye! You deserved a better break from the dental world after dealing with so many scumtoads.

Yay for a better experience, askye! I also am missing a molar, and need to start the implant procedure soon, but not until I get a full-time job.

Strix, one of my parent's cats went for a wander (they live in a mobile home park out in the desert) for three weeks, and then showed back up again like nothing had happened. I hope Cosmo is just taking the senic route back home.

I just told the wonder puppy, "This is why you are vaccinated for lepto!" I dumped her outside water and refilled it. She lapped at the pools of old water on concrete. She's never met a sketchy water source that she doesn't want to stick her nose into. Seriously clean, fresh water? Eh, she'll drink it if it's all she can get to but where is the sense of adventure wth that?

Sounds like a good dental day, askye. Recover easily. And I might cross the country to use your dentist. They sound awesome.

Zoe has similar tastes in water, although for unknown reasons she doesn't go for the toilet like many of my prior pups.

Yay for getting the dental work done, askye! I am remiss in that department. Very remiss.
