The actual work started today.( barring the getting poked twice to lessen the toothache part)
There is something diabolically comic about the visit to the dentist. I must have created a record of sorts today for keeping my mouth open for sooooooooooooooooo lonnnng. It is defenitley not an easy task to lay still with two people peering into it- one holding the serpentine infernal instrument and the other making bigger the cavities (existent and non-existent).The dentist embraces ur head lovingly, probably to lull you into a false feeling of wellbeing. You close your eyes hoping to shut off the pain and other unpleasent activities and things hovering over your head. It is a vain attempt as u realize u can think of nothing with the incessant drilling and the noise.One also has this urge to bite the dentist's fingers, chomp chomp but fearing the repurcursions, more drilling and loads of money you fight a battle of restraint within. Finally after a coupla hours but what looks like ages the dentist lets go of u.hmnnn haaaaaaaaa a sigh of relief. not sure if she's seen it coz she calls me again and asks me not to eat anything solid for a few hours(5-8 hrs). Now it so happens that i who normally can go without eating for hours suddenly feel ravenous and develop a yearning to bite into some delicious stuff. Alas! u dont get everything u want.
P.S. The whole experience may sound a little too melodramatic and exxagerated to someone who hasnt been there yet.
MORE TO COME
