I'm
going to stray a little from my norm of just diving right into my entry.
Tonight, I'm going to give this entry a title (considering my newly revamped
diary format, the title idea isn't a foreign concept anymore, though it
was a new idea way back when this was originally written).
Nitrous
Oxide: Man's Best Friend
Oh
yes, did I ever get some of that today...woohoo! And of course, I was
flying so high...mama mia.
The
procedure went well because there wasn't any pain but that wasn't due
to the nitrous oxide. It was just to refill a spot that had lost a filling.
The dentist told me there wasn't any need for the gas but since he had
to clean the area a little with the drill, he thought why not just incase
it did touch a sensitive spot, which it didn't.
So
he put the thing over my nose and things seemed ok. A couple of minutes
later, oh man...I was in heaven! Before he did that, we were talking about
the Leafs and going to games and stuff, but once the gas kicked in, he
continued talking about that but to me it was just mumbling as I totally
lost attention to his chatter and just enjoyed the gas =)
He
finished up and gave me the bad news. He said, "I'm just putting
the laser on the filling now to harden it but I have to shut off the gas
now. Sorry buddy". I thought to myself "aww crap, do you have
to?"
Ah
well, I guess all good things come to an end when you least want them
to.
I
made it home though the buzz left 2-3 minutes after he shut off the gas,
so the drive home wasn't any concern to me.
My
quest now is to find my own little supply of nitrous oxide! I'm so tempted
to damage more teeth on purpose, just to go for the gas!
Yeah
yeah, I'm sick...help me!!
Odds
& Ends:
the stuff I left to people in my previous entry should I not make it through
the procedure...forget it! No stuff for you! I'm keeping everything, especially
my satellite launcher. There seemed to be too much interest in that little
gadget so I'm thinking about putting it up on eBay to see what people
would offer for it. The initial list price, set by me, is $25,000 but
if someone offers me a really really good, mad cow disease-free, hamburger,
I'm willing to negotiate a one for one swap! (Sorry mom)
