Dental Update

So I hardly slept last night, but finally feel into a deep sleep around 3:30 am, and then slept through my alarm at 6:45 (I needed to leave my house by 7:40).  I woke up at 7:15.  I must have turned my alarm off in my sleep. 

I survived the dental work.  The novocaine shots were painful and made me a bit queasy for a few minutes.  The first tooth he drilled into I could feel.  I almost jumped out of the chair.  It hurt so bad.  The hygenist said, "Is that sensitive?"  UNDERSTATEMENT!!!  He shot me up w/some more novocaine, and it was smooth sailing from there.  The whole thing: cleaning, fillings, and impressions for my night guard only took about 1.5 hours.  It was almost half the time I was expecting.  Other than feeling like my lip was protruding, like I was drooling, and not being able to fully use my tongue to enunciate w/o a lisp I was fine.  The numbness lasted until noon.  By then I was very hungry.  My teeth are a little sensitive, but it wasn't near as bad as I expected. 

Taking C to the day of the dozer tomorrow.  Hoping to get some cute pictures.
