Dental care

How frustrating. Yesterday was a total waste of time. I ended up sitting in traffic for an hour on my way to San Jose because some idiot decided to crash his truck on I-80 which we all know is the smallest freeway in the world. So of course they decide to close all three lanes. I literally had my car in park for 45 minutes as I fell asleep listening to NPR (yeah, yeah I'm a nerd but you all know this already) which was broadcasting the car accident and traffic situation that I was sitting though (does that make me a celebrity? ...I can wish right?). Finally, they open up two lanes so that cars can drive through, but by then I've already wasted an hour of my life. Great. I wonder if I'll make it to my dentist appointment in time.

I ended up driving for three hours again. I arrived at my dentist's office at exactly 3:54pm for my 4:00pm appointment. Just in time! Or so I thought. The receptionist waves at me and tells me that I'm going to have to wait for another hour because the person in front of me is taking longer than usual. Ugh. Fine. So I sat down and waited for someone to call me. By then I was so exhausted that I fell asleep and being the smart person I am, I chose to use the plastic tree on the side of the room as a pillow. In the middle of my slumber, the plastic tree fell over. Everyone looked at me with a "what the freak who knocks over a plastic tree" stare. Apparently I do. Yeah, don't be jealous all of the cool people are doing it... sigh... why am I so challenged?

Eventually, the dentist examined my teeth. I expected him to start slicing away at the gum because that's what he said he would do last time. However, he told me that he wanted to change my old filling to the white one because the silver fillings cause damage to teeth. I really didn't care for this procedure because my sole purpose for going there was to get my infected gum chopped open. Unfortunately, he pressured me into changing my filling and then told me to pay 60 dollars up front after he was done. He then told me that he would refer me to the other doctor in order take care of the stress-induced gum infection. Great. The next available time that fit my schedule was in June. He said he would contact me if there were any cancellations. Until then I guess my gum will slowly rot away.

I'm going to take my cousins to Korean Tofu House in exactly 5 minutes. Mm delicious. This is what happens when my aunt is gone. I spoil them. Probably not a good thing, those stinking middle schoolers.

Oh, and one last update. The speaker system has arrived and it is absolutely amazing. I'm drooling at the sound quality at this very moment. I believe that was a good investment, thanks for helping with the decision. But, I must confess that I cheated and bought the audio receiver as well (heh heh heh). Does anyone know how to assemble this thing? I really don't want to spend 25 more dollars to get it installed. Can I bribe anyone? I'll make a three course dinner for the person that can successfully put this in my car without breaking anything. I mean, I'd show some leg but I'm pretty sure no one wants to see that.

don't forget to eat & sleep earlier (says my aunt) <3
