Last night, while eating pizza, I broke a tooth.
No, it was not a diamond pizza, as Bloody P suggested on Twitter.
Just a run-of-the-mill frozen deep dish style Hawaiian pizza. I am not that fond of Hawaiian pizza (I pick off all pineapple), but Keith is. If I get ice cream in the flavours I like, then he gets pizza in the flavours he likes.
Marriage is all about compromise apparently.
Any who, managed to get an emergency appointment with my dentist to fix the crater. It’s pretty ginormous – one of the points in the bicuspid snapped off right to the gum line.
An hour and a half in the dentist’s chair, two x-rays, lots of drilling that could not be drowned out by Stiff Little Fingers and the Ruts on the iPod, and presto.
I have a TEMPORARY filling.
Since the break was so close to the nerve, there is a chance that it may be affected. So, the temporary filling “makes it easier to do a root canal”.
Yippee skippee.
So I have 4-6 weeks of praying to both the Tooth Fairy and Saint Apollonia that I may be spared the expense and discomfort of my third root canal.
Fuck. You know it’s going to happen.

Just remember not to say “fuck” when you pray, sweetie.
