Well, I guess Wayne Newton got the boot from Dancing with the Stars last night. I am glad..he is a likable guy, but it was just becoming rather painful to watch. I really did not think he was going to be voted off, just due to his fan base, but I guess the scores kind of speak for themself. At least the public did not keep him hanging on like everyone did with Sanjaya, from American Idol...now that just pissed me off. LOL>...Anyway, let's carry on!
I want to thank everyone for the lovely comments from last post. I did survive the dentist...I was given Nitrous Oxide (laughing gas) before the procedure, then the needles were pulled out to numb the area....that alone just about made me pee myself...but, I held it together. The tooth was removed, bone graft completed...stitches put in. I have to go back next Tuesday for those to be removed; then wait three months for the implant. Thank God no one can see that the tooth is missing..I am kind of conscientious about my appearance, so missing teeth that everyone could see...that would not have been good. I did score some mild painkillers....that hardly work at all...(disclosure here...I do not condone the use of drugs for anything then what they are intended for, I do not abuse prescription drugs, nor do I use any of the illegal variety....just had to make sure we were clear on that).
So, I am still in some pain....not from the tooth that was pulled. Move to the other side of my mouth, I feel like I have a pinched nerve in my face. I have to go see an oral surgeon for a root canal...which they scheduled 2 weeks from now...it hurts like a son of a b--ch.....I took one darvocet, 2 800 mg of ibuprofen last night, hardly touched the pain at all...I knew this morning there was no way I was going to be able to survive for 2 weeks with this pain...so, first thing this morning, I called the oral surgeon's office, begged/pleaded/whined a little for an earlier appointment...as luck would have it, I get to go this morning...at 11 a.m...possibly have the root canal done today. I dread it..but I can't take the pain any longer....
I really did not need or want all of this to go down at once....work is crazy. I am so overloaded I could blow a blood vessel...it is our customer renewal time, my job to see all renewal contracts are printed/mailed out....around 650 total. It is a very tedious time consuming process, I alone have to do it. I have a stack of contracts sitting on my desk right now about eight inches thick that are supposed to be in the mail by Friday. Not going to happen. Oh, well...what do you do? My Commercial Manager is not going to do it..nor will anyone else. So, they will get mailed out when they get mailed out. I have a pretty understanding manager....It's not a matter of "You will lose your job" or anything...just a lot of pressure on me to meet the proposed deadline. I am a perfectionist, to a point, I will feel pretty poorly about myself if I don't get it done on time.
So...with that...I best get off of here. Lot's to do..
Dixiechick....out!
