the rest of the story.... or is that yet to come??

so, the fact is that I had to go back to the dentist the next morning for the root canal.... long, long story short, i inhaled 45 minutes of nitrate before they gave me three and a half shots of something that is supposed to numb me up good. problem is that it never became numb. eeks!!! i was so worked up by the third shot that all effects of the nitrate vanished in an instant and i decided that i had to get out of there.... is that weird or what?? the previous day i had two shots and i was numb for another three hours after leaving the dentist's chair.

we'll try again next week... i postponed it as long as i dared! i'll be asking for prayers that 1) the shots work right off bat, 2) i won't be too scared, and 3) that i won't feel a thing.....
