Farewell my friend....

A lot has been going on lately. In order for you to completely understand the magnitude of this, I'm going to take you back in time. I'm going to give you the shortened version of this story. Back about 3 years ago, I had undergone a routine root canal. It ended up not working, so I was sent to an endodontist, who "re-did" my root canal.
After about a month, I was still having pain. I went back to follow up with the endodontist who decided that I needed to have an apicoectomy (fancy word for cutting into my gums, and cutting off the top of the roots of my tooth.)
After this procedure, I was still having pain in my tooth. When I told this to the endodontist he said that there was nothing wrong, and I was faking it. (Yeah, right).
I ended up going to an Ears, nose and throat (ENT) doctor. Thismlady ran all kinds of tests, and decided that I had a problem in my sinuses. She performed a surgery on me, that I so adoringly call a "sinus scrape." Yikes. And just this past month, I began having pain again. So, naturally I went back to the ENT. She ran some tests, and just last week, I got the results.....It is my TOOTH!!!!! What the heck?!?!?!?
So, now to the point of this post, I went to see an oral surgeon yesterday, and his desicion is that the tooth needs to be extacted, and this huge lump in my mouth, it a cystic "balloon" that needs to be popped, and scraped out. YUCK!

This is me waiting in the oral surgeons office. Notice the tacky 70's wallpaper. Sick....

Here's Nick, waiting with me in the office. There is some kind of French Horn looking velvety picture behind him....are you noticing a theme yet?

And, to finish it all off....a tacky picture of geese. Yikes. And I kid you not, this place was covered in ducks. There were wooden ducks everywhere. I think Nick and I counted at least 15 ducks, just around the front office. Oh mercy. So, I will be saying farewell to my good ole tooth sometime soon. Anyways, the oral surgeon is really nice, and I know he's going to take really good care of me. I'll keep you updated. Well, that is all for now. Thanks for reading!

I think I'm finally getting the hang of things

So it has taken me quite a while to figure things out, but I think I'm getting the hang of this blogging thing. What do you think of my new background? I don't know how I figured it out, mostly thanks to step by step instructions. I consider myself pretty handy with the computer, but I was just having difficulties with it.

After many frustrations however, I'm pretty happy with the outcome. I finally figured out how to add my friends to my blog, and I'm quite proud of myself.

I would like to just show you where all of this learing happened....right here at my desk.

Do you like all the wires? It is quite a mess, I try to clean it up, but it never seems to help. Oh, and can you see what is on my screen? It's actually this very blog in the making. Haha!
Well, i should probably get back to work now, and do my job. Ha! Hope you all enjoyed. (Not that many people even read this blog. I am actually pretty sure that no one reads it. :P)

My Poor Baby!

Ok, so here's the scoop. About a month ago, my car was sitting outside of my work, just minding it's own little business in the parking lot. During lunch I happen to go to the Walgreens on the corner to get some snackage for the day. There were a bunch of people outside looking at something. As I get closer I notice that they are staring at my car. As I look closer, this is what is staring in my face.
(Insert Heart Attack....Here.)
This is what happened to my poor little car while it was just sitting in the parking lot. I couldn't believe it. I was so upset, I started crying at work (Lame). But keep in mind that at the time this photo was taken, I've only had my brand new car for 6 MONTHS!!!
Anywho...long story short, I got my car all fixed up. The guy who hit me was nice enough to leave his info, so as not to screw me over. My little baby is all fixed up, and running like a champ.

I'm freezing!

So....Here I am. Sitting at my desk. I've decided that I now have enough time to start updating this thing more often. I'm just sitting at my desk, answering phones, and listening to every single ailment that patients call about. They call about the weirdest things... I once had a lady call for an appointment because she wanted to get rid of her wrinkles....hmmm.... Oh, and this one is a doosey...I actually had a man call in to see his doctor because he hurt his hand. A legitimate reason to want to see your doctor, except when I asked him what had done to his hand, he told me that he was watching tv, and on the show he was watching the guy had a cyst on his hand (which I guess the patient had the same thing on his hand) and to get rid of it, the guy on the tv show slammed a telephone book down on his hand. So this patient, thinking that if it's on tv, of course it has to work, got his wife to take a rather thick phone book, and slam it down on his hand. And his exact words to me and this moment were: "She must've been mad or something, because she hit me really hard with that book, I think she might have broken something!" At this point, I'm sompletely dumbfounded....is this guy SERIOUS!?!?!? I tell ya, nothing but crazy people come to this office. These are my daily frustrations. And to top it all off, I'm freezing. It's like a meat locker in here.

So fresh and so clean

So, here is the trauma of my life. Yesterday I went and got my teeth whitened. EEEOOUUCCCHHH. I knew it was going to be a little painful, but I don't like mouth pain. My teeth were super-sensitive.

This is me during the procedure.

Don't I look so happy? (NOT!)

It sucked during the procedure, and all day yesterday, but today they are feeling great.

It was totally worth it. My teeth are super white, and I love it!!!

Well, thats all for now. :)

I'm not so good at this

So...I've decided that I am no good at this whole blogging thing. I read everyone's blogs, and I feel like I have nothing important to say. I really don't have an exciting life. So, I've decided to just write whatever I feel like.
