The joys of dental work

I went to the dentist yesterday -- I think I've mentioned before that I'm not a fan. The dentist is the only person who's version of "cleaning" involves making you bleed.

To make matters worse, I think the hygienist who did my cleaning got her degree from the Abu Ghraib school of dentistry. By the time she was done, she had drawn enough blood and caused enough pain that I was willing to give up all kinds of state secrets to make her stop.

Another part of why I hate going to the dentist because he constantly makes me lie to him. He knows I don't floss, but when he gives me that guilty look, and asks, of course I'm going to say I do.
