Ow. Owww. Ow. I had the right side of my mouth worked on today. Part 1 of 2 in the series of Root Planing. First the needle in several different spots. Lovely. It caused a tear to flow from my eye. I “did good” per the doctor. Thanks buddy. Thanks for the pain. I was glad the hygienist was there to wipe my tear for me - literally. Once I was numbed it was fine from there. The procedure lasted over an hour. I went home and ironed 56,458 shirts or so it seemed. The numbness was wearing off; I was looking forward to eating my salad. No such luck. It was almost 2 pm already and now the throbbing had started. I bit down as a “test”. Owww. I waited longer. I was pretty damn hungry by 4 pm. I was feeling very low on energy. I nearly cancelled the gym for tonight. I chewed on the left side, and did it rather slowly. Fortunately, lunch helped me regain some energy and so believe it or not, with a good cancelling excuse within reach, I still went to the gym as usual. Yay me.
 Another Caulkenstein relative emerges. TGI Friday’s lunch for cheap! We went on a topless tour. We toured Hollywood Hills and Hollywood Blvd. Click here to see last year’s entry all about it! |
I don't think I even want to know what root planing is. Sounds way too gross and painful.
ReplyDeleteYou're a big girl, Garry Parry. I would have not only cancelled the gym but called out of work as well.
ReplyDeleteWhich one of you had the root planing? Wah, wah. It's not that bad. Did you use gas? It helps. And a $1 roll of floss will save you mega bucks. Use it! Love you...
ReplyDelete@Li: Twas me, Garret.
