So as a part of my new commitment to doing better on keeping my blog updated, here is my first story...
I have a tooth that has been bothering me for quite some time so before the wedding I got a temporary medicated filling put in so that I wouldn't have to worry about the pain for at least a couple of months. So the time came to get the temporary filling taken out and the permanent one put in about 2 weeks ago. I did this only to find that my tooth absolutely killed when anything cold touched it. So bad that I couldn't drink anything except through a straw on the opposite side of my mouth. I couldn't even brush my teeth with cold water because it hurt so bad.
So after dealing with this pain for a couple of days I decided it was unbearable and called the dentist to see if I could get another temporary filling put in only to hear that the next step was to get a root canal. So that is how I spent my Friday morning, in the dentist's office having the nerve in my tooth removed. Woohoo. Luckily I was so numb that I didn't feel a thing and I used it as an excuse to miss my classes. :) Which is nice every once in a while. I also got to spend the day with my mom in her classroom because I didn't want to go back to Provo for my classes. So I ate school lunch with my mom and corrected some spelling tests.
My mouth was a little sore over the weekend, but now I am doing much better and my tooth no longer hurts! Woohoo! So I guess it was all worth it in the end! :)

No, it definitely was not fun! But now my tooth doesn't hurt anymore so it is great! The only problem is that I have to go back on Monday to get the root canal finished. :( Oh well, good reason to miss work. :)
