Broken Tooth & Writing again
Broke my tooth on Thursday. The front, left lobe is totally gone. Apparently, when you have larger, metal fillings, the metal will eventually pull away from the tooth. If it's a big enough filling, the tooth can and will break because it's so thin. I could have gone my whole life without learning this little kernel. Especially since most of my upper molars are more fillings than tooth at this point.
To fix it, my dentist said she'd need to drill out the entire filling plus any extra cavity, refill it, and then a couple of days later put a crown on that sucker. All of this is dependent on me not feeling any pain in between. If I do, it'll need a root canal.
She fully intended on starting said drilling today. Unfortunately, I have an ungodly amount of fear in drilling. I started having a full blown panic attack in the chair, and told her I'd need some drugs to calm down before anything started.
So...I left when a prescription for said drugs and an appointment for Monday. The joy that I feel about all of this is just indescribable. <-- Note my sarcasm.
ION, I've been writing again. Been hitting brick walls though. I've got a serious amount of the beginning and middle written of a Gus!fic. Just not sure where I want it to land. Every time I think I might be on to something, I'll make a note and come back to it only to hate it the next time I pick up working on. Not sure if it's just self doubt or reading so much fic that everything seems like a "been there/done that" plot. Got tons of an HP fic written, too. In that case, I have 3/4 of the beginning and the tail end written. It's bridging between the two and cleaning up some of that 3/4th. I had started to write in a relationship and then realized halfway that the story was strong without it. I need to go back and write it out. It's just painful because it's so much revision. :P
