the human body is remarkably resilient - you could take a pin needle to it and poke it in so many different ways, FEEL the pain either briefly or for a few minutes, and then adapt to the pain and brave a few more pricks .. well, i was poked and pricked today, on the dentist chair, with a collection of pricking metal looking things, and another set of drills and shockers to scare my plaque and deposits away from my wonderfully white teeth ..
--oh_my_gawd--!
and i thought root canal was bad (well actually i didn't .. i had fun watching the dentist drilling a huge gaping hole into my molar tooth, and yanked out all the nerves from inside, then POURED hot wax/gold/ or watever the fuck they poured into that hole, then COVERED it with filling, to be crowned later on .. total cost of root canal and crowning of one tooth - $1400 ... cost of keeping your tooth your own and healthy - PRICELESS!)
why would you put yourself under all this torture and pain?? ok, fine fine, if you didn't go for your check ups every 6 months, like i have failed to do since i am a cheapskate student who would much rather spend $150 on my textbooks than a dentist (and believe me, i did it very, very grudgingly) .... but to cut the story short (coz dentist stories are gross, and i don't know why ANYBODY would want to become a dentist to poke and prick into someone's mouth - maybe just for the pure pleasure of seeing your patient's discomfort, perhaps - and that is pretty sadistic) .... i got my teeth cleaned, x-rayed, and polished until they're completely and utterly "sauber"ishly C-L-E-A-N.
now i have to maintain the cleanliness ...
