Ugh dentist
Well, I have a new cavity. I went for a cleaning today, and the lady (who I really like, by the way) said I had a baby bitty cavity (by the end of the visit, it became like a running joke- someone would say, "so you have to come back for that cavity-" and someone else would interrupt "it's just a little one!"). I think she made it herself. You know how they tap your teeth looking for holes or because they like the sound or whatever the reason is that they go around banging your teeth? She tapped each tooth and got to one and was like this:
Lady: *tap*
Me: La la la la.
Lady: *tap tap*
Me: La lalalalalala.
Lady: *TAP!*
Me: La la LARGH WHAT THE HELL!
So it's my conclusion that she made it herself.
So then the real dentist came in, and this dude pretty much doesn't talk. In fact, when he speaks, he repeats everything said to him, except that it seems like a perfectly original thought and appropriate response. "I think there's a cavity here." "You think there's a cavity here." "Yes." "Yes." It's... kind of weird, but he's really nice when he's not repeating and really, really quick. He did three of my cavities in about five minutes and actually waited for the numbing crap to start working. In my first two cavity experiences, they stuck the crap on my teeth, disappeared for a second, and then came right back in with the medieval torture devices. Seriously, usually when a medical professional leaves you in the room you're pretty much doomed to be there until at least your next birthday, but in these instances they were all Speedy Gonzales-like except minus the Mexican stereotypes and random Spanish exclamations. And they were two different dentists, imagine.
So anyway, my teeth are all aching from the extreme! cleaning she did. Since my grandfather's been going there forever, he gets me in with all the good people. Plus, this is the second time I've had to have him take me because my mother made an appointment for me on a day she had off and then had to work. I have to make a new appointment for my cavity filling and if she isn't off that day I dunno what I'll do. Plus I made an appointment for October 31st, which is the same date as my cleaning last year, and both make me giggle with the irony. And it's a Wednesday, which means she haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasssssssss to be off.
And I paid with my own credit card!
Note that this would be more significant if I actually paid for my own credit card.
Well, that's all my news.
