You know, there's always a let-down after a holiday, like Christmas or your birthday. You have your birthday and it's really wonderful: on Saturday we (family, including Dad) went to Fitz's, and yesterday we (family, minus Dad)went to the Cheesecake Factory, where I had my first legal drink (a Typhoon Punch), and then we got home and Mom opened a bottle of champagne and I opened presents (I got a TIVO among other excellent gifts.. YAYYY). And that really was wonderful.
But today, all the magic is over, and I had to go to the dentist to get some cavities filled. Tyler and I went on Monday for a cleaning and check-up and they found that we both had several cavities. This really bummed me out because I floss and brush regularly, and prided myself on my dental hygiene. To no avail. Today I went to get the fillings in and it was quite unpleasant. At first there wasn't enough anathestetic (I'm not even going to bother spell-checking that), so when they first started drilling, it was like blue lightning of pain in my face. So I asked for more and received it, and we went on our "merry" way. When they started holding down my tongue, I kind of couldn't handle it and was gagging.. anyway.
I think I might be allergic to those latex gloves, because my face is really itchy. I mentioned how itchy my face is, and they said it could either be the gloves or the anesthtetic (haha spelling is hard), so I should take Benadryl when I got home. So I have, and am expecting to crash any minute now.
P.S. I can't even feel my right ear.
