My fun day ahead

So, anyway, it's now 4:07 in the morning where I am.

You may be wondering just why in the hell I'm up at such an ungodly hour. Well, I'm an insomniac. For the last 4 years, I have slept exactly 1.5 hours twice a day. I do not know why nor do I care because that's not the point of the story. However, I can assure you that Fight Club is correct, when you're an insomniac the world is a very strange place.

Today I am going to the dentist. I'm not a big fan of dental visits, but I suppose it could be worse. A couple of days ago an old crown fell out. It just fell right out, leaving what remains of a tooth that I haven't seen in 15 years exposed to the world. I set an appointment to go to the dentist, but yesterday it (the tooth, not the dentist) decided it needed to become infected. This has led to mind-numbing pain. (poor me, boo hoo, cry me a river)

Fortunately, in 4.5 hours, I will be in the dentist's chair getting this thing fixed. I will drop my daughter off at school and whisk myself away to the nice man who will be gassing me and having a general good time knowing that he will be able to stab me with needles, shove wads of cotton in my mouth, and hand me a bill for $800.

If you're a dentist and are reading this, I mean no offense. I just find it amusing.

Afterwards, I suppose I will do a little shopping and come home.

Sounds like a terrific time, eh? Anyone care to join me?

Try having a dentist who is an old friend from high school and with whom you've smoked much weed and imbibed many alcoholic beverages. :eek:

I don't think I'd like to try that.
