modern dentistry

[fox_confessor]

Root canal today *wibble* To say that I'm nervous would definitely be an understatement. It's for the same tooth, actually, that started my fear of dentists when I was 7. Once I'm home (with the good drugs right?), I'm planning a Jane Austen film marathon (in between sleeping, I suppose) and cross stitching, which I find endlessly soothing. As a reward for being a Big Girl about my tooth (assuming there are no tears, yeah?), my mom bought me a special treat: a hunk of really good gruyere. There are already plans for a lovely French onion soup at the end of the week.

I was not, however, too afraid to have breakfast this morning ^.^ I had made some pear and apple sauce last night to go in oatmeal this week, which turned out excellent.

You'll be fiiiiine. :D I'm guessing you didn't get fully knocked out, otherwise they would have advised against eating anything beforehand, and I am proof of the wisdom of that advice. o.o But afterward, yes, just relax and enjoy the foofy faffiness of post-drugged-up-dentistry. :)

No knocking out, just a lot of pinchy shots. I'm still a little uptight, but mostly okay. I was so glad it was over only to find out I have to go back. Unfair!
