NUMB

The whole left side of my mouth is numb -- so annoying! I got three cavities filled today. Two on the bottom, one on top (I think). The whole experience was quite pleasant, as far as dentist experiences go. They were quick, efficient, and I wasn't in any pain at all. In fact, I watched Animal Planet on TV as they drilled and filled. The show was about an elephant commune in Arkansas, and a baby elephant that was born. Did you know baby elephants are about 250 lbs when they're born? If you put it into perspective, I would much rather have three tiny holes drilled in my teeth and live with a numb mouth for a few hours than birth a 250 lbs baby.
