Back from the dentist again... Two more cavities fixed. You wanna know why human canines are called eye teeth? Because when they drill them they excavate a tunnel clear up to your eyeball. No, not really. "Hmm," sez dentist, "some gum tissue has grown into a place where it shouldn't be, so I will remove it." Jab goes the anesthetic. Stab goes the electric scalpel. Well, maybe is wasn't a stab, as I smelled something burning, maybe me. Auuugggg! No, really after the anesthetic it didn't hurt. Mr. Dentist's next project is a place between two molars where those yummy sliced onions get stuck when I eat ramen. I can't go back next week because I will be up in Tokyo, so he will just have to survive for two entire weeks without seeing me.
