Ow! My Face!

I was the lucky winner of nearly an hour’s session in the dentists chair today. Being a stupid idiot, I’d left a cavity in one of my teeth (riiiight at the back) to the point where the whole thing was practically hollow inside. The dentist seemed to treat it with a mixture of awe and shock, but generally I think he felt it was a bit of a challenge, so decided to go at it, whilst discussing the potentials of root canals, and other scary sounding procedures. Needless to say, I was under local anaesthesia, which is now wearing off, leaving just an aching and slightly swollen jaw. It feels just like when I was mugged and punched in the face, except when I was mugged, the guy didn’t get any cash from me. This morning, the mugger ran off with £95, and I was pretty thankful for it being that low.
