Back to the Dentist, Again

I’m finally doing something about my front tooth.

Today I go back to the dentist for a permanent crown. I don’t really want to go — the procedure hurts, to be quite frank, after the novacaine wears off. And, let’s face it, getting novacaine is no picnic, either. #understatement

But getting my tooth fixed? I can’t overstate how great that is, how much of a difference it makes. And as I’m going to be talking in front of a bunch of people for several hours on Saturday, it’s one less thing for me to worry about.

I’d still like to get my hands on a whiskey milkshake for dinner, though.
