Dental Work

Last week I spent over three hours in the dentist chair. Fortunately I was not the patient for all those three hours.  The boys each had to go and I laid on the chair while they laid on top of me so they stayed calm so the dentist could do his thing. They were both in the chair for half an hour. Then I got to go to my dentist and spend over two hours of pure fun and excitement in the chair repairing two teeth plus filling a cavity. I got five shots of novocaine all on one side of my mouth and well to put it simply it just sucked. Seeing that huge needle coming... ugg I have to move on.

Anyway I have spent way too much time in the dentist chair. I take good care of my teeth, but they just don't seem to want to behave nicely.  I had 7 wisdom teeth. Who the heck has seven wisdom teeth. I did. Let me tell you that wasn't a fun week getting them all pulled out on one day. Then I had a route canal the day before my wedding.  Oh the memories.  Anyway I have spent many many hours in the same old chair with the same dentist for years.  Each time I visit I look at the blank wall and think to myself if I had some of my pictures hanging on the walls that could make me going to the dentist much more enjoyable.

I had no picture to look at my last visit, but I was thinking about this picture I recently took.

I don't know what there is about this picture that I like so much, but I thought I would really enjoy looking at this photograph for two hours.  I asked him if I could hang one of my pictures up in the office and he said he'd be happy to put one up.  Woo Hoo. Watch now my teeth will be well behaved and I won't go back for six months.
