There are few things I hate in life worse than going to the dentist. (It’s on the list with bridal and/or wedding showers and corsages… but not necessarily in that order.) Specifically… I HATE having my teeth cleaned. It is pure torture for one hour that I volunteer for every six months. It’s horrible. I’d rather have a shot in the mouth and a cavity filled. Just the thought of them scraping and probing makes my skin crawl. I had an appointment today and I had to get in the car and take three Advil just to relieve the pain so I could drive home. This girl really beat me up. Each time I leave and I make a personal vow to myself that I’ll start flossing more, but that only lasts a few days. (Similar to my New Year’s resolutions.) The only positive part of the experience is that she didn’t try and carry on a conversation with me while she had her fingers in my mouth… (Another thing I hate.)
