Life FAIL

OMG seriously I think I\’m about to loose my mind!  This whole dentist thing has my panties in a HUGE knot!  But what can I do aside from hope and keep my fingers crossed that McGill accepts me or find a cheaper dentist.  Granted I have to say I have some pretty clean teeth!  This will be my 5th brushing (after I post this ) in the past oh I dunno 15 hours!  I tell you one\’s mouth is a DIRTY place and with the epic amount of dental work I need done, no more screwing around with it!  I\’ve devised a plan though, if McGill DOESN\’T accept me as a patient then I\’m having it removed because a root canal is too expensive and doesn\’t guarantee any positive results either.  Besides a dental implant costs a little more & offers better results.  We\’ll see, I\’d hate to loose yet another tooth but I have to live within my means too.

So today while at work stoned outta my mind between the pain/bacterial infection meds I\’m on I was a tad bit air headed today to say the least. The morning started out OK, special today was chili and that\’s easy to make and dare I say the best one I have made to date! So I was stirring it using this large wooden paddle we have had when it snapped in two and splattered me with an exceptionally hot (temp wise) splash of chili across my chest and ALL over my hand/wrist which left some really bad burns.  Which thankfully were localized to the top of my hand and my wrist, it could have been MUCH worse.  The inside of my wrist is killing me, my hands not so much because I have awesome callous build up.  Of course I\’ve been smart and brought my camera to work lately but I still have yet to upload them.  Sometimes Often I tend to forget just how strong I really am!

Then I got sick, I mean were talking the most epic case of gut rot I have had in a while.  At first I thought we maybe its something I ate because chili powder is spicy enough to occasionally send my stomach off into a frenzy but then something dawned on me, my antibiotics for my tooth also cause nausea, dizziness and a few other un desirable side effects that I will leave out.  So I blame that, that must be it. Today was OK just really rough in the sense that I\’m stressed out over this whole tooth thing, I feel like a total airhead and icky!

Thankfully this weekend is a LONG weekend which means I can get some much needed work done, along with general housework and the boy is coming to visit me on Sunday night and he\’s staying over 🙂 Poor John doesn\’t stay here often because towards the middle of the night he\’s usually only left with one throw pillow (I used to have 8 reg/2 decorative pillows on my bed which have been reduced to 6 because of my 2 new memory foam pillows which are huge) and I\’m a first class duvet hog and to top it off I move around A LOT. I am not accustomed to having someone in my bed after living alone for so long for one thing and sleeping with someone who likes to cuddle. While this is cute, I do tend to get restless and want to move lol. Although my memory foam makes my bed that much more comfortable and I don\’t feel the need to toss and turn.
I kinda feel bad for him though, for a while I had a pus filled mess in my boob (which turned out to be nothing but that thank God) and now I have pus leaking from my tooth and forget about my birth control actually working. I mean really what guy wouldn\’t find that attractive? 😉 I told him that it was OK if he didn\’t kiss me, because I tell you, I wouldn\’t kiss him if he was in the same position as me lol.

On a final note: worth a laugh (Thanks  to Ania! who orginally posted this on her blog)

Tales of dentistry hell!

So yesterday I headed off to the dentist and I was in PAIN ALL night!  I thought well mild discomfort was to be expected and I popped some Advil and hoped that it would go away by the morning.  Nope, not a chance!  It wasn\’t AS bad but  I thought to myself, OK seriously?  What was supposed to be a simple thing, is turning out to be a VERY expensive trip to the dentist!  I was brushing my teeth this morning and noticed part of my temporary filling had ended up in the sink but didn\’t think too much of it because well I just flossed that area.  Then as I was leaving for work it went from a dull pulsing throb to a incessant ache.  Again with the Advil, hoping that it would clear up.  In fact it actually got worse…

I was trying to innocently chew a piece of gum, and that hurt!  I couldn\’t put ANY pressure on that part of my mouth without it sending a jolt of pain through my jaw, let alone bite down on it which I tried to do several times to test if I actually could!  So I go about my day and the first thing I do is make my quiche because they take an hour to cook and if in the event I need the oven for lunch then its free to use.   Quiche + flour= dust particulates that make me sneeze.  Of course I had one of those epic open mouth sneezes that made me smash down on my top and bottom jaw which sent the most HARDCORE jolt of pain through my system!  I honestly felt like someone had taken a stun gun to my gum\’s and a baseball bat to the side of my head.  The pain was so debilitating that I literally fell to my knee\’s clutching the right side of my face in tears.  I have NEVER experienced pain so intense in my entire life then I did at that moment.

The culprit: pus buildup.  So my roots are in fact infected, and when Dr. Regina started cleaning out my tooth it started to drain and since she covered it up (knowing that I had infected roots WTF) it got trapped which created a pressure build up because quite simply it had no where else to go.  So I called my dentist because I was BEYOND pissed off at this point!  Got an emergency appointment for 4:45pm to have it looked at to see what the problem was.  So I had to have my temporary filling removed ( you know the one I got less then 24 hours ago at this point) and I am now on antibiotics for my mouth infection (penicillan, awesome!  Hello possible yeast infection and birthcontrol wipe out!)  and because of this my tooth has to remain open so that it can drain properly.  So I have to keep little cotton balls shoved up there so that it doesn\’t get further infected and brush my teeth every time I eat something/change the cotton ball and I will most likely need a damn root canal!  I am SO annoyed (with myself) for not having this taken care of sooner.  So there goes ALL my vacation plans since I doubt I will be able to afford to go anywhere let alone have any spending money for a tattoo or going out with my friends.  I am NOT happy with the end result of today at all!  Here\’s to hoping that I get accepted into the teaching hospital because I really need a break and so does my improvised bank account!  Thankfully this trip to the dentist was a freebie!  As for the pain…  I think its gone… Although I have totally od\’ed on Advil today so that helps lol

So I decided…

To do a few things, one of them being removing my blog off of blogger and just transferring everything to here because its just SO much easier to maintain.  I also created a new category called totally tasteless.  So today shall be known as totally tasteless/tacky Tuesday.  At least part of it, mostly because I can.

John sends me a text after work in regards to this \”trashy\” news tidbit which I responded with something to the effect of EWWWWWWWWWWWW THAT\’S SO NASTY!  Which it is!  I have no problems with public sex but a dumpster? WTF?  I thought that was the end of it…  I thought wrong.  You see John and I both love Family Guy perhaps a little too much.  However anyone who is a regular viewer of the show should be familiar with the dumpster baby episode which is a totally wrong, not to mention tasteless (yet somewhat hilarious) dig at Melissa Drexler.

So John made the mistake of asking me what I thought was worse: Dumpster baby or dumpster sex?  Of course dumpster sex totally outranks dumpster baby IMHO because for one thing, I\’m a total germaphobe/neat freak and I HATE being dirty.  Garbage grosses me out to NO end and I am also totally ANTI baby in all forms!  My reply to that: All babies should be chucked in a dumpster ( OK well not all but most because kids annoy the hell out of me if they don\’t belong to family/friends) and dumpster sex…  Think about it: Garbage groodies dripping into your ass crack and rats nibbling on your private parts?  I think not!  So I of course being the queen of crass and all things nasty (not only that I love to gross out John because it amuses me) I said what if there was a dumpster baby where you were having dumpster sex?  That was it for him, he replied with no more dumpster talk.  lol, he started it and it appears that I have finished it!

Speaking of TV shows, today at work reminded me of a Seinfeld episode…  I\’m standing there  talking to a customer when this woman walks in and AS I\’M TALKING to one of my regulars barges into the conversation with excuse me, excuse me EXCUUUUUUUUUUUSE ME.  I looked glared at her because that\’s DAMN rude!  She wants to know what\’s for lunch, when is it going to be ready?  She sounded EXACTLY like George\’s mom in this episode (the contest for those of you that know the show) Where she screams George I\’m HUNNNNNNNNNNGRY!  Anyway…  It was only 11:20am and lunch doesn\’t get served until 12:00pm.  I could have had it ready earlier but her voice and her epic rudeness just irritated me to NO end so I made her wait until 12:00.   My kitchen bitch, MY rules!  I hate people, I really do.  I\’m a GOD DAMN CHEF not a waitress an I will NOT tolerate rudeness in any fashion.  In any case she was put in her place, but yet she left happy and loved my food ha ha 🙂

Sometimes I hate my life, but moments like these make me smile…  And by smile I really mean evil smirk, just in case you were wondering.

Well hello Dr. Hottie pants!

So I finally made it to the clinic today!  I DID go in yesterday, but the wait regardless of the fact that I was in there 1/2hr after it opened it was packed and Joann was on her way over to give Heddy her shots later on in the afternoon and I didn\’t want to put her off once again.  Of course the Doctor that was in on Saturday was a woman which would have been an ideal choice for me given that I needed to have my breast looked at.  OF course today the Dr. on call was a guy, and a rather hot one at that!  Not one that I would \”involve\” myself with personally but man were talking some serious eye candy here!

So when Dr. Lavy Dr. Hottie Pants walked into the exam room I was all durrrrr I can\’t talk ha ha.  Anyway I explained what I *thought* was the problem, turns out I was indeed wrong because the location isn\’t the same.  So while he was groping me examining my breast to see where the mass was he couldn\’t locate it.  I refrained from saying that\’s OK darling you just keep on coping a feel until you find something, really its OK ha ha.  However its under the surface of my skin and its the size of a pea or roughly the size of one.  So he told me not to worry about it but is sending me off to see these people for a breast ultrasound.  Problem is, medicare no longer covers them.  They also don\’t come cheap, at $200.00+ a pop which I can\’t afford until May because of rent, my bus pass and insurance eating up the rest of my hard earned money.  I am exceptionally hopeful that my insurance will in fact cover it.  YAY for QC health care *insert heavily loaded sarcasm here*

Strange thing is last year when I went to see my OBGYN and forgot my medicare card I was told that if I forgot it next time I would be billed $100.00 for the visit.  So what somewhat troubles me astounds me  is that its only $100.00 to fondle my crotch but $200.00+ to fondle my boob?  As far as I\’m concerned my \”girly bits\” are FAR more private then my breasts are humph!  In any case the area is still burning, not in a ultra hardcore painful way but its still there and its still noticeable but Dr. Hottie Pants doesn\’t have x-ray vision so before I can receive the proper medical treatment I need to get an ultrasound first.

So between my boob, the chipped tooth that I desperately need to have repaired, not to mention the one that needs to get pulled I\’m rather frustrated with the sad state of affairs that my body is in lately!  Thankfully I DO have dental coverage and off to the dentist I go and soon to have those matters dealt with because I only have to pay 20% out of my own pocket, that I can deal with because I tell you, my tooth is bothering me FAR more then my burning boob.  So I have quite a few phone calls that I need to make Monday ugh!

In ohter news, i\’m *almost* done decorating my apt, which means pictures will come soon!
