Hurtin’

My tooth is killing me.

Strike that. My jaw is killing me.

I hate having dental work done. I hate having crowns put in. I hate waiting for my gums to heal so that I don’t cringe every time I take a bite of food. I hate my tooth still being sensitive to temperature and pressure while I’m wearing the temporary crown.

I hate paying huge amounts of unexpected money—money that should be going to fixing my eyes instead of fixing my geed-up teeth.

I hate taking pain meds. I’ve taken more Tylenol the past week for this than I have in the past year for all my aches and pains combined.

Think I’m going to go take some more Tylenol and go to bed.
