that damn dentist

by david on August 17th, 2006

this is stupid, but i’m quite upset this morning. i went to the dentist expecting a typical check-up, but little did i know that today would be the last day i could say i’ve never had a cavity. yeah, for the first time in 25 years i have to get a filling, and i’m livid. i understand that most people would be quite satisfied with such a thing, but i feel like, well, literally when he said, you have a cavity, i felt like someone punched me in the stomach. seriously. and to make things worse, today was the first time to see a dentist other than dr. watson since i was 4 years old, so that in and of itself was a little uncomfortable. and the way he said it, the fact that i have a cavity was no big deal. i was just another patient to this guy. now i’m sure he’s a really nice man and a good dentist and all, but still…augh!

ok, now i feel a mite better. but it still sucks. no cavities was supposed to be my destiny…now the dream is over.
