Dumb thought of the week: Well, my first dental operation in removing my left wisdom tooth was a complete success! However, the tooth extracted was a real tough bastard! It took the doc 35 minutes (cut and all) to get it out and stitch it back right up. My boyf was in the same room with me (I had to pretend to be his sis in order to get the naval discount) and he got really freaked out cos he was afraid that I'd die on the dental chair or something. The kewl part was missing work for a week and slapping myself in the face hard right after the operation due to the local anesthesia. That was fine until he told me to stop it.
Moral of the story: Fun with local anesthesia!
