Fished in

Have you ever wondered, while getting your teeth cleaned, what it'd feel like if the dental hygenist whipped the scythe-like pointy-steel fish-hook-like instrument right into your tender lip-flesh?

Here's the answer: NOT GOOD. I'm just lucky there's not going to be a picture in the morning paper of her standing next to me, suspended by my lip from a scale. "Caught: the elusive freshwater technician! Weighs in at over 150 pounds, plus sweater, leather coat!"

I was offered an "Oops, sorry" for it, then nothing else. And I did have to break the cleaning at one point just so I could brush the blood from my lip. Overall I don't know if it's partially the hangover from a miserable weekend (despite the pigskin awesomeness that was the Chefs and Bolts) but today has, on all possible levels, sucked badly, even apart from my dental hygenist playing "catch, bill and release."

To celebrate my escape, I bought Sixlets, Chewy Spree, three boxes of Nerds and a handful of Laffy Taffy. I'm feeling just a little grumpy and curmudgeonly, and sadly, I don't think the sugar's helping.

I know you have dental issues, but if anything like that happened to me, I'd be searching for a new dentist. Happily, I love my dentist in a manly patient-to-doctor way.
