Hi guys. Sorry for that little flip-out last night. I'm feeling better now.

I'm really exhausted. Gonna try to make this short.

Couldn't sleep last night. I had a dentist appointment this morning so I intended to get up early enough to shower and such before that. But after the alarm went off, I went right back to sleep. I jolted awake at 9:50 (my appointment was for 10) and scrambled to get dressed and run to the clinic. Luckily the building is located right beside my apartment.

I was lucky. No cavities this time. My teeth are prone to them - soft teeth, acidic mouth - but looks like I got lucky. They say the wisdom teeth will have to come out, but nothing to worry about just yet. The only thing I'm concerned about right now is the insurance - I have to mail forms to mum and such, get her to sign some things. It's a pain. Because the office doesn't direct-bill with out of province, the thing is technically on my credit card until we can get everything sorted out. Lovely. $300 isn't too bad, but still, argharghargh.

In happier news, a store opened downtown that sells Demeter cologne. Ohoho! This stuff is hard to find on the shelf in Canada, so I'm rather happy about that. Just gonna have to make sure I don't spend squillions. Nngh, their stuff is so good though, and it'll be nice to not have to pay shipping, though of course they won't have all the scents there...

Nngh. Tired. Bed now. Though I think I might read in the tub first. I'm making my way through Margaret Lawrence's The Diviners right now, and so far it's pretty okay.

OH. BEFORE I FORGET. I've been listening to Keane's "Crystal Ball" over and over in the past few days. I just love this song so much. Sooo I decided to share it with you guys. Download is here.

I literally have to get driven to Airdrie or Swift Current to get my dentistry done. It's twice as expensive in the Hat. It... Really stinks. ESPECIALLY WHEN YOUR BIGGEST FEAR IN THE WHOLE WORLD IS DENTISTRY.

[yuuago]

What? Omg, that sucks. D: Eughhh. *patpat*

My parents wanted me to go into dentistry, but I was like, HELL NO. Wouldn't want to make a living out of sticking my fingers in the mouths of nervous people.

That's a good thing. The dentist always yells at me that I have "danger zones" and such and then "floss and it might help if you're lucky."

I had to get 4 cavities drilled in one round last time...

[yuuago]

Ffff. "MIGHT help"? If you're lucky? Poor you. *ruffle* Geh, I have to do 2/3 times per day, and floss every day, and fluorinse every day, and that mostly keeps it under control, but not always. Last time I went in, they said I had like, 6 cavities or something. Sob. Fortunately they got most of them done at once.

[noonish.livejournal.com]

Yeah, cavities suck ass man. Not fun at all, especially when it's all "maybes" and such. I thought this was advanced medicine.

I love it when you use your Estonia icons. /random

That said, I get away with going to the dentist just once a year, but I am terrified by the thought of wisdom teeth ;A;

[yuuago]

I love it too. (Whee, Eesti~)

I have to go bi-annually. Lovely. But at least that way we can catch stuff before it happens.

I'm not too worried about the whole wisdom teeth thing. Apparently mine aren't impacted too badly (?) so taking them out won't be much of an issue.

[(Anonymous)]

Oh my, is that one new? I don't recall seeing it before, but.. ♥

I used to not go for years but I'm trying to go at least once a year now. At least I get discounts and I've not needed anything more than some cleaning and polishing so the bill's not too bad. My eyes on the other hand...

Idk, it's just the idea of huge, alien teeth bursting through my gums, and having to extract them and all the blood and drugs and stitches and pain auuuurrrggghh.

[yuuago]

Not new, just an old one that I don't use much. ;p

Huge alien teeth bursting out, eh? xD Well, don't worry, because it's not like that. Er, at least, in my case, the gum was a little sore for a few days, and then it was gone... and then over a few months the teeth became exposed. It's not a sudden thing.
The removal, now, that makes me a little bit nervous, but that's largely because I've never had any sort of removal or surgical procedure whatsoever, never needed stitches or anything - so, it's the unfamiliarity that makes me uneasy.

...is it weird of me to want to continue this conversation mainly because I want you to use your Estonia icons?

pffft I'm also the anon who commented on your spam post about your Est/Fin fst yesterday so I'll just go reply to that yes? Let's not talk about removing teeth aurgh.

I just got into Keane, and oh my god, this song's amazing!

[yuuago]

I know, right? I've liked them ever since the 'Hopes and Fears' album came out, but recently I've been really into them. lkasjdf this sooooong~

[thecatepillar.livejournal.com]

I dread going to the dentist. Having braces =/= fun. I'm glad you're appointment went well, though~

_{And I love that Estonia icon. Do you happen to have a link to the original artwork?}

[yuuago]

GEHHH. Lucky for me, I've never had to have braces. Would've driven me nuts.

The original is here. Confession: I squee whenever I see it. (Then again, I squee whenever I see anything with them together...)

[thecatepillar.livejournal.com]

I just recently got them off and SO HAPPY. They are a serious pain and very uncomfortable to wear.

Thank you!
And I can understand why you squee. That is absolutely adorable. ;3;
