dentist

I went to the densist this morning. I had to get a crown placed on my tooth. now I dont' know if you're familiar with a crown, but it's this tooth colroed thing they put on your toothe after a root canal. the tooth is dead and basically all but gone, so they take an impression of your tooth, send it off to some laboratory and charge you $1200 for it. Now yes, insurance pays for 1/2 of it, but still $600 is a fucking lot of money. anyway, so after a month of waiting for it to be made, i summon up the courage to go to the dentist to get it cememnted onto what's left of my back molar. dr. vander picks up the crown with a pair of tweezers, sticks it in my mouth and immediately proceeds to drop it down my throat! MY THROAT, DOWN IT GOES!!! I freaked out, started choking and somehow coughed and coughed because I was not letting this $1200 little thing go down my throat. I finally coughed so hard, I expelled the tooth, it came flying out of my mouth, flew across the room and hit the wall and landed on the floor. now i'm a germaphobe, but after all that I let the guy put the tooth in my mouth. I feel like i should've gotten a discount of some sort. don't you agree?

anyway, no news on my dating life this weekend. instead i went snowboarding with a bunch of friends in mammoth california. we got a condo and had a blast. the weather was perfect, the snow was amazing and even though I had to sleep in the bunk room with the rest of the single folk, it was worth it!!
