i'm going to stick my head in the oven now.

why do i have to have such a stupid mouth?
i don't mean to be a high maintenance patient.
but my jaw doesn't last long
and my pain tolerance doesn't even exist.

so i get to the dentist
and she says 'i'm going to use this gel to numb your mouth'
and i say 'ok.'
then she says '95% of people use this gel and are fine.'
i say 'ok, let's try it.'

nope.
not even close.

so then the 'real' dr. comes in
and shoves loads of needles into my mouth
meanwhile i am starting to shake quite a lot
and freeze. oh my word i am so cold.

then dr. #1 starts working again.

nope.
closer, but no.

so dr. #2 comes back.
you know what this means.
yep.
more needles.

and i am now turning to ice
and shaking so much
and they are like 'oh yeah, those are side effects of the anesthesia.'
nice.

then as dr. #2 is working again she casually mentions that i can't eat for 3 hours afterwards.
even nicer.

finally the work is done
and dr. #1 says she is going to give me a quick polish then i am done.
the polish = ice being blasted into my mouth.
but it looked like smoke was coming out of my mouth.


the best part is that i have to go back again next week to have the other half of my mouth done.

stupid, bastard mouth.
