So, I had a root canal this morning. Buy my books!

…I’m going to blame that title on the endorphins. To misquote somebody or other, there is nothing quite so thrilling as finishing up a procedure where they go deep into your tooth to get all the nerves — and realizing that there was no pain during the procedure. Truly, the state of the art has improved greatly since the days of my youth: back then, ‘root canal’ was a pretty good analogy for ‘torture.’ Or possibly just a euphemism.

Still: buy my books! Root canals are also way cheaper than they used to be, but they still ain’t cheap.

PS: Posting may still be weird today. I have no idea how I’m going to be feeling when the local anesthesia wears off.

  1. It’s gonna suck.
    And linger.
    But it’ll be better than what prompted it.

    Enjoy.

  2. I think perhaps you were alluding to Churchill when he said, “Nothing in life is as exhilarating as to be shot at without result.” Although in your case, a shot was probably helpful.
