its roughly 3:41am right now in Massachusetts, and I am following the excruciating wont I have been accustomed to doing for the past five days by waking up at 3 or so in the morning to take a pain reliever for my soon to be extracted tooth(Tuesday,12:30...mark your calendars).

I will admit that this entry( and perhaps many others soon to follow) do not coincide with the regular theme of this blog-space, but given the enormity of my situation--and the thoughts now possessive of my mind--I deem it worthy a note. I do not like Dentist's, I do not like them fried green eggs and ham..
But,I marvel over how, in today's regime of health and wellness, one can find ailment for his oral malady--not to mention any other medical excursion put to him.


I'm going to have a root canal done, and thoughit sounds painful, I find it a vindicating to what my mouth is going through at the moment. A sort "TAKE THAT" to a pesky nerve in my pesky tooth. I never fathom having my wisdom teeth removed weeks earlier would reveal this orange clockwork of errors in my tooth-alignment. But, perhaps I'm being too hard on myself, I mean, I am grateful to have a working plan in process next week to finally fix this issue. Most do not have this luxury( and when allowed to remain on this subject long enough, I pity them. Pain is something no person, animal or three formed organism should have to endure).

I'll ride it out today, and then tomorrow, and the day after that--at which point I'll drive into East Longmeadow, and plunk myself down for thirty minutes of Novocaine good times. Did I mention that the sound of drilling through enamel( lets say,MY enamel) really rubs me? I didn't? Well,it does. I wish I would listen to my ipod or opt for anesthesia, but that would seem a cop out. I've dealt with this annoying pain for five days now( at times being unable to eat or sleep until the pain relievers took root), I think I should be awake to its final demise. I should be able to sing its swan-song as its extracted, cleaned, and crowned. I should be able to revel in this; having been the recipient of my tooth's angst and discomfiture toward me for a week.

I will.
