  For the most part,  I consider myself a mostly brave person. nbsp;  However,  when it comes to the dentist I turn into a simpering whimp. nbsp;
 I almost always cry and the thing I hate the most,  more than anything else,  is having my teeth cleaned!
nbsp;
 It’ s that whole nail down the chalkboard sensation that just KILLS me.  I’ m so,  so,  so,  glad that I have the coolest,  awesomest,  incrediblest dentist in the whole wide world.
nbsp;
 We have discovered the secret to getting me through a teeth cleaning without tears and gnarly anxiety.
nbsp;
 The secret you ask… Novocain!
nbsp;
 They numb my gums and then the hygienist can scrap away no problemo.
nbsp;
 I still object to the ultra sound thingie,  even numbed up,  so the hygienist has to work a little harder but not much.
nbsp;
 The other secret is that I go quarterly and rotate between my uppers and lowers so I don’ t have to be in the chair long.
 I’
m so proud of myself;  I went to the dentist today and didn’
t cry!
nbsp;
 Yippee for me!
nbsp;
 AND,
 I’
ve been even less bitchy today!
nbsp;
 Perpetual bitch was around for several hours last night,  but I’ m happy to report that I haven’ t seen her all day today.
nbsp;
 I’
m hoping she’ s gone for good.
nbsp;
 Keep your fingers crossed!  I broke my toe on Friday at Princess’  and Tool man’ s casa.
nbsp;
 OUCHIE!
nbsp;
 It’
s not too bad and I was even able to squish my foot into heels for work today.
nbsp;
 The scary thing was that the longer I was in heels the better my toe felt.
nbsp;
 Now that I’ ve been home for a while and my shoes have been off,  it’ s starting to throb again.
nbsp;
 Doesn’ t that seem really weird?  Today’ s Happy Accident To Celebrate:
nbsp;
 Dr.  Johnson,  DDS and Novocain.
