…hmm

Tag: Uncategorizedammogirl @ 8:27 pm

So. Apparently the reason why my site was not working in IE was because of the Stupid English Class Fight post. John deleted it and voila! Now the site works. However, now I don’t have that post. Maybe I will just retype it up and post it again, I don’t know. I am feeling very unmotivated today, and it’s all due to my stupid tooth.

Oh! Man, I forgot to tell you about something else not related to this story, but first I want to tell you why my tooth is causing unmotivation.  You know how you bite the inside of your cheek while eating, and then it swells up and you keep biting it over and over and over? Well last Wednesday I did just that, bit the inside of my cheek, and every single day since then I have chomped down on the swollen spot at least twice, and now it’s to the point that it hurts so bad my teeth hurt and pain shoots up into my brain and I am a huge crankypants baby. I swear to god tomorrow I am only eating liquids. Or drinking liquids, whatever.  The thing is, I have some pretty pointy canines, and you would think I would learn my lesson and eat carefully, but no.  I haven’t.
Anyway, what I forgot to tell you. Do you remember wayyyyy back in August, when I was still in Korea? I had to go see the dentist for a toothache, and the dentist told me I had sprained my jaw, remember? I thought he was high, because that’s just dumb, but he ignored me and said I grind my teeth and took his filey thingy and filed down my molar and I didn’t notice any difference. And when it still hurt after a couple of weeks of twenty-thousand-times-a-day doses of Motrin and I went back to see him, he told me there was no way it still hurt because nothing was wrong with me. Well! GUESS WHO WAS RIGHT? Me! I went to my annual cleaning a couple of weeks ago, and the dentist came in and said, “Um, I noticed you had some jaw pain back in August, did you know the previous root canal is failing and it is causing your jaw bone to deteriorate?” I was like…no? So now, I have to get my root canal redone the day after I get back from vacay. I know, that sounds like the most fun ever.

Also, I went in for an MRI on Sunday and when I was done the tech let me look at the images, and he showed me all my insides. I saw my brain! It was so cool! I wish I could’ve printed the images out, because I am that weird. But really, how cool is it to see the inside of your body? I love stuff like that.

This Thursday has the potential to be an exciting day, but I don’t want to tell you why in case it turns out to be a sad day instead. Don’t ask, I won’t tell you until then.

Tschuss!!

    Ouch! I promise we will medicate you with plenty of ice cream and fine wine while you’re here so you won’t injure yourself anymore.

    The only thing that brings me down is tooth pain.

    That’s why I always carry pliars in my back pocket…

    Glad your site is working again…

    You had become a bit of a mystery…

    Root canals.. and the years and years of orthidonture work I had and braces and whatnot are why I’m avoiding dentists. I have a hole in my molar when oh.. a piece of it just broke off one day. Broke. Nice. I have quality teeth apparently. But no dentist yet. I know I have to go.. but um.. I’m ok for now. You better go tho so that deterioation/jaw stuff can get stopped. I’ll go when I hear mine is deteriorating too. Probably not til then tho. ;)
