Freakout!
When I hear that phrase in my head, I hear 70’s disco music played with electric guitar and people wearing white jumpsuits, fuzzy hair, big glasses and a disco dance floor. With big teeth. Yes, let’s focus on Teeth.
Yes my chompers, my pegs, my toofies are being examined by the dentist tomorrow. Quel Horreur! Like everyone I have a healthy fear of dentists, however over the last few months I have endured the worst toothaches imaginable. I don’t even use painkillers anymore for a couple of reasons. I nearly overdosed on em in late June, which lead to my digestive tract problems, and the painkillers don’t work. Only thing that worked was getting drunk on Bourbon and I can’t do that every time my teeth hurt.
I fully expect to come out of the dentist with a significantly lighter purse, a hefty bill, and a beeline straight to HBF to claim 60% of the cost back and wack it back into my credit card which is already upset at the $450 I spent on the weekend. Just aswell I have some savings stashed away around the place. So this dentist is just up the road from where I live, and I fully expect to stagger back with lips that are totally numb and won’t be able to talk or eat hot food.
I am expecting at least 2 fillings as I have 2 problem teeth. I have 2 others that need some “work” done, but nothing serious. The pain of toothwork can’t be as bad as the toothache itself. The number two shows up a bit here, perhaps it’s a good omen. Maybe my bill will be a 2 digit number. Wish me luck!

well i went, i have a complex problem, the tooth can be saved “yay” but the problem is very deep and affects another tooth next to it. *sigh* Tomorrow I am off to health care people to get some money back and wack it back into the CC. The way this is going it will be pay for 2 visits, get one free with a 60% return off the cost.
