Yay for the Endodontist

Well, I had to have a root canal today and it was not fun at all. In fact, the novacaine has worn off and the pain is setting in. I am managing ok since I was given an antibiotic and some pain medicine. Chanda works for a dentist so she is giving me advice and making sure I stay on top of the pain.
I have THE best husband in the whole world. He took me to the dentist office today and waited for me for 2 whole hours and then took me to KFC for mashed potatoes and made sure I was well taken care of before he went to work. He really is one in a million. The dental specialist who worked on my root canal today was phenomenal. She was so patient and kind and informative. I felt very comfortable with her and didn't even need a sedative or Nitrous Oxide. I was strong and I did just fine. I have to tell you though that it was no piece of cake. I will make sure to have regular cleanings and floss daily to try to avoid ever having another root canal. At one point, I had to have more novacaine because I could feel the drill hit a nerve. OUCH! I almost came off the chair it hurt so bad. All in all the dentist was awesome though.
American Idol was good tonight. The people that I thought were getting voted off actually got voted off. Sometimes I wonder if it is a fixed show. Just sayin. I mean I had an idea that those 2 would be going home, but I just wonder if maybe someone else got the least amount of votes and they switch it sometimes? You know you've wondered that yourselves! Maybe I'll just go to bed because the hydrocodone is making me space out.
I am going to pick the favorite things back up soon... good night.
