Dental fun

Root canal yesterday. Aside from the dread and fear before hand - I didn't have a lot of pain but making it hurt so they know which tooth is the problem was looming large - the actual procedure was horrifying and lengthy. Don't let any one, like my Aunt Elyse (a dentist) tell you "oh it's nothing." It's not nothing. And then the meds they give you afterward keep you up all night. And I'm only on a quarter of the dose I start tomorrow.
