IVE JUST SPENT THREE OF THEEE MOST MISERABLE HOURS OF MY LIFE AT THE DENTIST.

Alright, so I've had a root canal once before. Everybody and their mother hyped me up into thinking it would be horribly painful. So I went and had a root canal done and everything went smooth and suave and perfect. No pain. No discomfort. When I left I had a new philosophy. The belief that people tend to exaggerate, whether it be good or bad.

Today at 2:30pm I entered the dentist office with my guard down, thinking this was going to be a piece of cake, I mean I had my new Freddy Prinze Jr. looking doctor...etc. Ok, now I know why some people prefer much older doctors with much more experience because my man just wasn't cutting it.

About an hour into the procedure, after making far too many references from the movie "Spinal Tap" he decides to try out his NEW 'Rotary Master' (READ: DRILL) on me! So yeah, basically I think he just got so excited about his new toy that he just couldn't stop drilling. He ended up drilling too far into the canal past the apex that I just about kneed him in the face. He followed with "Opps, I think I woke up your nerves." OH YOU THINK SO HUH?! bastard.

Then with all of the lowering to work on the tooth and the shifting me back up in the chair to take x-rays, etc. he started with the "Wee, its a roller coaster" jokes. OMG, hello retard dentist of the year. Needless to say this was the worst pain I've ever felt and I've been through some pretty painful experiences.

It ended with him commenting "that tooth kicked my ass."
I replied, " more like it kicked my ass" (while thinking, more like I want to kick your ass.)

It's throbbing and the novocaine has worn off and I'm taking pain medicine on an empty stomach. UGh.
