INVISIBLE TOOTH TATTOOS

No, no, not tattoos of invisible teeth. I got those three filings done today. They filled them with something that wasn't silver. I wouldn't say it was exactly tooth color either. But it certainly wasn't silver. It was tooth-ish color - whatever that is. Bummer, I was hoping to have a cool (and kinda disgusting) before and after picture of my chompy bits.

I have pretty good teeth. I made it into my 40's with only 1 cavity that required freezing, prior to today. Granted, these three cavities were likely there for a while and had I been going to the dentist regularly (or more than once every 5 years), I might have actually had them detected and corrected BEFORE they were a problem. And had I been flossing more regularly prior to the past couple of years, these cavities might not have even formed at all (they were all in between teeth).

So, boys and girls, floss regularly and visit your dentist every 6 months to 1 year. Or you'll end up with three cavities filled on one day. Or worse, over two or three days.

And as much as it wasn't painful (wow, my Dentist is awesome with a needle!), I'm a bit achy now.

I will also mention that the Slurpee that I rewarded myself with after the fillings were done was some kind of funny to drink since my lips were frozen HOURS after the fillings were done. Ever try to drink through a straw when your lips are frozen? Funny stuff. I highly recommend it, just for the laugh.

I've looked for an amusing graphic to add to this, but I'm tired and achy and I can't find one quickly. Sorry, next time, folks.

NAIR WARNINGS

NAIR WARNINGS THAT SHOULD BE ON THE BOTTLE:

If product is applied to face, we are not kidding about trying a small patch and waiting 24 hours to see reaction. Seriously, this stuff will burn the smile right off your face and you'll end up with a chemical burn and a bright red scar of stupidity above your lip instead of the Sasquatch mustache you're trying to get rid of. But don't heed the instructions, you go ahead and do whatever you want because you're clearly smarter than us. Go on and pile on a ton of this stuff above your lip and then wait 6 minutes instead of the recommended 4 because you clearly have stubborn lip hair as determined by an experiment on your legs with our product 20 years ago that didn't do anything for ya. No really, go ahead. Pile it on. Leave it on too long. Do a happy dance when the hair comes off. Then pout for the rest of the day (and a week or two to follow) because you're a freaking moron. But don't even consider writing a nasty letter to us because here's the warning in black and white. Idiot.

BOOK WHACKS TO THE FACE

When the book you are reading repeatedly whacks you in the face, it's time to call it a night.

I consider myself a smart person - a smart person who is alerted to it being time for sleep by being woken up by my book falling on my face. About four times.

I suspect this kind of behavior goes on, all around us, far more often than we realise!

Don't be a victim! Turn the lights out and go to sleep when you are sleepy. Don't let a book to the face happen to you!
