My tooth has been really swollen for the past week, so I finally conceded that it was abscessed and told my mom. She made me go to the dentist. I pointed it out that I had no money. She won the argument with a very loud, "MONEY DOESN'T MATTER WHEN YOU'RE DEAD." Fair point, I give her that, so I dragged myself out early this morning to the emergency clinic. My pretty bad insurance covers emergency visits when there's no work done, and it's too swollen right now to even do anything. They're going to have to extract it, but I just want it to stop being infected so I don't die, so he gave me penicillin and vicodin for the pain. He was a really sweet guy. The last dentist I went to made me feel horrible for the way my teeth are, but this guy was totally all, "I completely understand if you haven't been able to pay for anything in the past, but you're still young, so you should try to do things when you can." Totally cool. It doesn't even hurt, it just feels like a huge knot underneath my tooth which is annoying. But I am not going to turn down prescription painkillers, no way. I'll need them in the future at some point, I'm certain.
There's a Lady Gage takeover on Fuse. I love it.
I'm so sleepy. Went to Phoenix on Saturday, really didn't do what I was went there for, but that's fine. We watched 17 Again and Mean Girls since Mean Girls is classic~ and 17 Again was actually really cute. We were going watch Up since I haven't seen it. Somehow we ended up getting drunk and watching Arthur. I find this completely legit.
I saw the Lovely Bones last week with my friends. I had no desire really to see it since it looked horribly depressing - surprise! It really was. The most painful movie I've ever seen, hands down. Subjects like that just knock me in the face. I'd lose my goddamn mind if something happened to my little brother or sister. It was very sad. I think it was supposed to be uplifting at the end, but I was still thoroughly depressed. Fail.
I got a cheap fedora with a peacock feather in it. I plan on never wearing it, but I could not resist.
