I just got back from the dentist – had to get a filling to repair a small chip in my tooth. Was in and out in about 20 minutes.

My dentist gave me the option of getting numb or not. Um, let’s see … I’ll opt for no pain instead of pain, thank you.

I didn’t eat breakfast, so I’m really hungry. But my lips still don’t work. I tried to take a sip of water and dribbled all over myself. It’s such an odd experience that I can’t help but find it funny.

Any time something goes wrong with my teeth, it reminds me how thankful I am that I have them and that they’re relatively healthy. That helps motivate me to keep flossing.
