I thought it was funny. And let's face it, that is the only thing that matters.

So I went to the dentist today after school. Normally this would be nothing worth posting about, but I thought it was a very entertaining experience. Other than the fact that I could not find the room, it was pretty normal until they decided to do the X-ray pictures of my wisdom teeth. They use that machine where it revolves around your head as you stand there. Well about half way through it starts beeping and jerking back and forth and the assitant says "Uh oh". "Uh Oh" is not something you want to hear when you have a machine firing radiation into your head. So she said "Step out very slowly." I didn't really care, I figured I already had brain cancer so there was nothing else I could do. She gets someone to fix the machine as we go take pictures with another X-ray. Well it kept screwing up so she kept stabbing film into my mouth again and again till she was finally satisfied with the pictures. Naturally I am very tired after school and all of this, not to mention the really relaxing music playing. So as they start probing my mouth, I fall asleep. The lady wakes me up and after I had been asleep for a couple of seconds but to no avail I just go right back to sleep as she pokes and prods my gums with steel objects. They finally finshed (me barely awake) and we go back to the insane machine again, which actually works this time. The dentist then looks at the results and says "Uh Oh". What is it about this machine that makes people say "Uh Oh"? Well turns out one of my 3 wisdom teeth has a root wrapped around an artery. Clearly, this is a bad situation so he recommends me to a specialist. They say I need to get it removed in the next 2 months or else it might get worse. I think the funniest part had to be when the dental assitant was telling me about what to do when I go to the oral surgeon. "Now when you go in they are going to talk you through what they are going to do, how long it is going to take, recovery and athestsia, just tell them you want to be knocked out for it." I am sure this is some sort of decision I get to make "Oh yes Mr. Anthestiologist, make sure you knock me out cold, I do not want to be awake for this." I talked careers in medicine with my dentist and he told me which professions make the most money and that I should be one of those. I was very tired after this and went to sleep.
