25.1.06

i've been rejected by the ADA.



i have five count em, five flipping cavities.
last week i pulled this weirdo black shard out of my mouth. yeah, i know. keep reading. i thought, oh crap, i lost part of one of my (many) fillings.
fast forward to today.... haven't lost any fillings but i need five more. and what the hell was that black thing? i feel disgusting.
teeth are stupid. i'm going to get some wooden ones. i can whittle them into neat and festive shapes for the holidays. i'll be local folklore... the girl with kwanzaa candles or leprachauns.
i don't know if i can be a badger with rotten teeth. how am i supposed to bite my enemies on the rump.
i can't even be a badger.

ouch! you have my total sympathies - i hate the dentist more than anything. that picture is friggen' scary, by the way.

i think you only need one good bitin' tooth to be a badger, and failing that, some authentic badger sounds. snarl!

pitiful, but don't feel bad i am in the boat with ya. i have to get two crowns next week. they may have to put pins in to rebuild the teeth before they put the crowns on. thank god they are in the way back. i am so looking forward to this. wheres the laughing gas. i need full sedation please thank you!

I have not been to the dentist in this millennium. I actually made a resolution last year to go, and didn't. If I do go, I hope I do not have 5 cavities. Good luck with that...
