Give Me Novocaine

Today I had to get my tooth pulled. I had one last baby tooth and it was holding up the adult tooth or something like that. So today was the appointment... I wasn't that nervous I guess. I just wasnt sure how it was gonna happen.

So they took me back to this room and closed the door so that the little kids passing by wouldnt have to look at all the blood squirting all over the place. Then the dentist said "You're gonna wear a happy mask, you've never had a happy mask before..."

Ha ha... yessss I have. I loved my happy mask. I used to chew on it and smell it... It was hot pink and smelled like strawberries or something... I got it when I was like 4 and I had cavity. But I didnt tell him that. Anyways, he's like "Your arms will start to feel funny and then you'll feel funny all over, just relax blah blah blah" So he puts the happy mask on my nose.
I was waiting for my arms to start tingling. They didnt.

Duuuuuude.
Then I noticed I was trip-trip-trippin'
It was pretty fascinating.
He gave me a shot of something, and then I could feel something dripping in my mouth. Apparently blood since they had to vacuum it all up. Anyways, it only hurt a tiny bit. He poked it a couple times and then had this big... thing that pulled it out the rest of the way.

It took about 10 minutes, if that.

Then my eyes started watering. Usually its just one but today both of my eyes decided to water. Like, a lot...
So the lady's like "are you okay??"
I laughed a little and nodded.
I've just come to accept that my eyes will water and people will think I'm crying. Its annoying but I'm over it.
It got me a coin from the prize machine at least.
I haven't gotten a coin for the prize machine in like, forever.

AND I GOT A STICKER. that says "Worlds greatest patient" on it

yay.
i guess these days they dont actually give out the nose pieces to happy masks to the patients... darn, lol. I didnt even get to pick a scent, whats up with that?


my legs feel kind of funny....

I need some help...

Well I discovered yesterday that my spiffy new blog template doesn't allow comments. That I know of. Not that people normally comment anyways, but still... I was wondering if maybe it was part of the coding or something or if there was something I could plug in and make it work. x3
Or I could just decide if I like comments more than my blog template... So if anybody knows, I'll guess you'll have to post in my shoutbox....

And I guess if I dont get any "shouts" I'll have to think about a new template or something. :(
Which would stink because I really really like this one.
