I would just like to report that I have never been happier to mistake the date for an appointment.
The root canal is tomorrow morning, not today.
Good thing I called to double-check.
The Catmage Chronicles
Andy thought he was going crazy when a talking cat showed up at his front door. He couldn’t have been more wrong.Goldeneyes is a Catmage – a cat with human intelligence and magical abilities. Andy is an eighth grader who is smart, impulsive, and trying to avoid the school bully at all costs. A prophecy threw them together. There’s just one problem: Goldeneyes can’t stand humans.The Catmage world is heading toward war. Goldeneyes and Andy must try to stop the enemy from getting stronger. And they must save a powerful Catmage who’s been kidnapped. For Goldeneyes, it’s personal. That Catmage is her grandmother.Andy and Goldeneyes must try to put aside their differences. If they can’t, the enemy will soon be too powerful to defeat…
Ouch. So a root canal is a real procedure huh? I always suspected it was just a metaphor ;-).
Good luck.
I’ve had them before. They were no great shakes, until I had one in a molar that had an extra root.
That was the one I chose to refuse painkillers for, as none of my previous root canals had bothered me beyond an hour or two afterward.
This time, I declined to have it done on Friday morning just in case I need a prescription.
Don’t get me wrong—I actually hate all painkillers except for the aspirin/ibuprofen/acetominephine trio. I don’t like feeling stupid, and painkillers make me extremely stupid. But if I do need them, I want the option.
This time, though, I think Tylenol is my biggest option. I’m on anti-inflammatories due to inheriting the family arthritis, just discovered this year. No Advil for me.
