Ew.
I had to go to the dentist today. I usually know about my appointment a month or two beforehand...which gives me time to mentally prep for the dreaded experience and tell myself that I'll be okay. Today was different. My mom got out of her appointment at about 11 this morning and informed me there was a 2 o'clock opening. I figured I should go since I head back to Idaho soon. Ahh! The thought that in a few short hours I would have to be sitting in a chair while someone wacks away at my mouth made me feel quite fearful and anxious. It was just a regular cleaning, I did it, and now it's done with. Phew. But I still feel anxious...I have to go back next week because one of my fillings "doesn't look very healthy" and they need to re-fill it or something. Bah. I really am glad that there are dentists around so my teeth don't rot away...but at the same time I really, really, REALLY don't like going. And you think after all these times that I have gone and it went fine, I'd be okay/used to it...but I'm not!

I agree with the "Ew". I really really really hate going to the dentist. It's the worst. At least you didn't have to go through dreading it for a few weeks.
I didn't realize you had such a repulsion to dentist!
I just saw your comment about Elvis being Alive...yes! :) As for the dentist, Mark and I went yesterday. I actually don't mind it at all...and still want to be a hygenist!
I hate dentists - watch Little Shop of Horrors and you'll see exactly why - so grateful they are around to drill away at my teeth but I get so dang claustorphobic.......eeeeeeeewwwww....I'm sweating just thinking about it!
