I spent the morning at the dentist and will need to spend the afternoon there tomorrow as well. Mostly routine care, but I sure hate going to the dentist office. I actually miss the spit bowls. Don't you? I hate that they stick a hose in your mouth and suck up, what was meant to be spit out. Oh, well. My dentist is very sweet and comforting, and takes care of my dentalphobia. I had my work done today and went to make my next appointment for a filling. I had an appointment set up for 3 weeks and the girl at the desk says "unless you want the appointment tomorrow." She happened to say that as the dentist was walking by. Before I could protest and tell her that 3 weeks would be just fine, he said, "Oh , we don't want to wait 3 weeks, get her in tomorrow." Dang!!!! I guess it is better to get it over with. His reasoning was that tomorrow will be a filling, but 3 weeks could end up a root canal. I should thank him...I guess. So I have 2 days of stress and torture. Not that the actual procedures are torture, just the idea of them. Well I do not plan to be a jack o lantern, so I will go. Prays are appreciated.

Symathies for the dentist!
Nice answers for your meme.
Just think by this time tomorrow it'll all be behind you. Thought you were extra quiet today.
Dentists! I sympathize! LOL!
Ouch. But you're in good company. I don't know anyone who likes going to the dentist!
Dear Bren in this week I've lost many post about you and your life. Just for now I tell you :
Give a kiss to Charlotte,
Happy blog anniversary!
I will read every post and then I will write another comment.
ciao ciao
I feel your pain at going to the dentist. I was eating a Reiser's candy and broke my upper molar. It took three times to the dentist to get a crown to fit properly.
Oh I understand about the dentist! But just think--it will soon be over!! HURRAH!!!!
Right there with you on the dentist . . . at least it will all be over with today *s*
I hate going to the dentist too! My dentist has a television in the ceiling right above the chair. You can't always hear it, but at least it is a distraction. If the TV doesn't help, I let my mind wander and think about anything else except what is happening in my mouth at the time! I read that I was tagged for your meme. I will post my answers later today. Let us know how your dental appt. goes today!
Eeek -- good luck with the dentist. I just did it last month -- the sore jaw was better than the sore tooth though!
Ha! That is so funny! I was just at the dentist this morning. I gagged on the stupid plastic things they stuck in my mouth to take the x-ray. I hate those things! That just triggered one big gag reflex for the whole cleaning. Ugh - my teeth are still sore!
Oh boy at least it will all be over soon enough my dear!! Hugs to you. I wondered where the Tackle it Tuesday was. I will post my answers to the meme tomorrow. Take it easy!
I think you made a wise decision taking the appointment for tomorrow. Otherwise you'd have three weeks of the appointment nagging at you and wishing it wasn't. :-)
