The Devil...I mean Dentist...

I hate going to the dentist. I would rather jump off the Grand Canyon in the middle of a thunderstorm than go to the dentist. (Ok, so I would definitely NOT do that, seeing as it combines my two biggest fears, but you get the idea.) I hate the dentist so much because my mouth ALWAYS hurts after, even when I just get a cleaning. This is because they always shove that little scrape-y thing in between my two front teeth, and all my teeth shift around. I mean hey, I (well, my parents) paid good money to have that gap fixed and then you go and recreate it and give my retainers the hardest job of their lives to fix it. Ugh. And on top of that, my teeth just suck. Everytime I go to the Dentist, I have a cavity. You know when you're a little kid and they give you a sticker or prize for being cavity free? Well, I never got one. So today, I had to get my cavities filled. Which brings me to my second hate of the day...
I HATE GETTING NUMB FOR CAVITIES. Yeah, not only does the numbing do nothing to stop the pain, but then I can't feel my lip for the next two hours and coming off of the Novocain feels like I'm dying. It's worse than child-birth probably. (I wouldn't know, since I have no children, but I bet it is worse.) I don't know, maybe there is just something wrong with me. So, I always ask the dentist for no Novocain. And he tells me, "Alright, but if you feel any pain at all, you let me know and we'll give you the Novocain." Ha, I can deal with a sharp pain for two seconds if it means no numbing.
In short, today I got two cavities filled with no Novocain. And I wore a Blog-worthy outfit. (Although, my face is far from Blog-worthy today.)

So a few things about this outfit:

- I have packed up 90% of my clothing, leaving only things to wear for the next week. I didn't have any rhyme or reason to what I kept unpacked, so I'm glad some things I picked actually go together.

-This shirt. Oh, this shirt. The first time I saw it was in a picture on an ad that Charlotte Russe sent to my email. The moment I saw it, I knew I had to have it. But, I could NOT find it ANYWHERE on their website. I did find it in a store a couple weeks later, but they did not have my size. They called another mall that I was going to the next day to see if they had it. Apparently that store didn't even have the shirt in stock at all. So a few days later I went to a third store, which didn't have my size either, but they had one close to my size, so I could at least try it on to see if it was worth finding. And it was. So they called two other stores before finding one in my size. My mom drove me 45 minutes to get this darn shirt. And I still love it to this day. :)

-These shorts. My mom had me go to Walmart to pick up some Pizza sauce, and being a girl, I couldn't help but check the clothing. I normally don't ever buy clothes from Walmart, but I saw a rack of knee-length denim shorts. I definitely need longer shorts for BYU, so I looked through them, and to my surprize, they had one pair of Cobalt blue shorts. In one size smaller than me. :( And I have a pair of denim shorts, so I started to just walk away. But, out of the corner of my eye, I saw a flash of this minty-greenish-whatever-color-this-is. I ran to the other side of the rack and lo-and-behold, one pair of shorts in this color. IN MY SIZE! The heavens parted and angels started singing their joyous strains as I picked them up and ran to the dressing room. So I came home with these amazing shorts (and pizza sauce too). I just hope and pray that they are long enough for BYU standards.

In other news, today is my last day as a red-head. I have no money to actually keep up with the red, so I'm going back to my natural color tomorrow, so I won't have to worry about roots. :( Sad day. Also, one of my friends that I have known since I was two got engaged last night. So happy day for her. :)
