Wisdom Tooth

    My wisdom teeth, all four of 'em, have been sticking out of my gums for a couple years now. They've never bothered me, well.. except when they were first popping out of my gums they hurt just a tad for a day or two. Basically they are like extra teeth to me, except none of them come out all the way. Unfortunatly, now, one of my wisdom teeth is bothering me, because, it would appear, I have shattered it. Reading that, I'm sure a lot of you are thinking PUH?!?!?! First of all, I would like to blame Nick Huber entirely and completely for this (because of COURSE it's not my fault). See, Mr. Huber DRAGGED me, FORCED me to go to Quick Trip the other day and purchase some Spree Candies, which in turn is what "shattered" my tooth. I mean, how much of a jerk can this guy be!!!

    All kidding aside though, the Spree Candy I bought the other night was the cause of my unfortunate tooth at present. What happened was, I was bringing my bottom teeth up to my top teeth in a biting/chewing manner when a lone spree, riding out on its own to the back teeth decided to be a rebel and turn vertical in my mouth, securely lodging itself on one of my bottom right back teeth as the top reached the unfortunate top right wisdom tooth. There was a crunching sound that I immeaditely didn't like, no pain mind you, just the slight sound and feeling in my mouth, to which I brought my tongue up and immeaditly felt roughness, almost like a sharp edge. I then proceded to move my finger in to better assess the situation. At that point in time I thought I had simply un-rooted my tooth slightly from my gums, and the roughness I was feeling was the top of the tooth that isn't suppose to see the light of day. The only time the tooth hurts is when pressure is applied on the "rough side".

    What I have now come to think happened was that the side of my wisdom tooth was actually shattered slighty, and there is bascially a cave there now. The main reason (it's hard to actually see the tooth, even with as wide as I can open my mouth, because of how far back it is) I think I shattered it is because today at work I was tonguing the rough spot and kept feeling something that felt skinny, and was thinking maybe it was a root on the bottom of the tooth, but eventually it "fell out" and I discovered it was a tiny shard of my tooth. I go into the dentist at 9am on Monday to have the tooth taken care of, which basically means removed, which basically means I will probably NOT be a happy camper on Monday.

    Work was easy today, it was nice weather so not too many people came to the movies, got to drag Nick around and help me with the 45 move banners (banners, not posters) that we have stashed away in a "closet" (really a storage room). We, well, mostly him because I ended up having to run across town, organized them and wrote down the movies so that I would have an inventory of all the ones we have.

    Ok, well, relaxation time.

    TUMEO.
