where's the tooth fairy when i need her?


So what’s been going on with me lately? Well, to start, last Friday (November 3) I had one of my wisdom teeth removed. Now, I know you are wondering why only one of them was removed. The answer is simple. My dentist decided that my mouth would be just fine with my wisdom teeth in. Apparently I have a big mouth….well not really, but it is big enough for 4 extra teeth. Anyhow, after the first tooth had fully grown out, I realized that it was almost impossible to clean behind, and I was probably going to get some cavities or something….not good. So I went back to the dentist and we decided to simply extract them one by one as they came out. Sounds easy enough right? Well after having the first tooth pulled last week, I realized I really did not want to go through this 3 more times. I guess the procedure wasn’t that bad because the dentist gave me the gas before hand which caused me to tell my dentist he had a cute smile, which was good because he’s a dentist. Anyway, I called my dad and we decided that I should have them all taken out at once (I am covered under his insurance, and he’ll pay the bill) so I now have another appointment with an oral surgeon because of the three remaining wisdom teeth, 2 of them are still impacted. I’m really getting sick of the whole teeth thing and I really want it to be over. However, I now wished I would have pursued my original path in college of becoming a dentist. They make so much money for such little work it is unbelievable. Don’t get me wrong…there are many procedures which require great skill and sometimes hard work, but for the average dentist appointment for something like a cavity or a tooth extraction, they get paid mucho bucks! But no, I changed my major, and now I am going to graduate one year later, and make less money….hmmmm.

That’s really all for now…anybody who wants to share their wisdom teeth horror stories feel free. I’d love to hear them.
P.S. If John Stocco does not play against Iowa and we lose to them for the 4th consecutive time since I’ve been in college, I am going to be soooooo pissed off. Ok, that’s all.
