Everyone rejoice! The root canal is over.
And yes, it was horrible.
Just for reference I thought I would show these lovely things.
Those are apparently known as root canal files. So after they whack out a big hole in the tooth, they measure just to see how far they gotta dig in. Then they go in with those medieval looking shards of metal and pull out the nervy bit (I should have been a dentist).
I made the mistake during the procedure of opening my eyes. Not something I normally do, and now I remember why. I look up and see one of those files in the dentists hand. Maybe it was just the moment but I swear to god it was an inch long. Oh I should also mention that the novacaine wasn't working so well so when he was shoving a file down in two of the canals it hurt like a mother fu&$#%.

We met in 05, married in 07, and now just three months after that wedding we are going through yet another life change. We are both working for the Best Friends Animal Society, and living in Kanab. This is our story.

As soon as your teeth are back in one piece I will come visit. What are you doing next weekend? Is the beer going to be done? I am supposed to go plant trees with the Obama people, but I guess I could reschedule for the right peeps. It is just our country after all.
