After a flurry of work rushing for today’s presentation, I arrived home hoping to get a bit of rest before burning the midnight oil again for a presentation tomorrow. As I lay in bed, a slow warmth starts which turns to a mild flame of pain.
Damn. The tooth I’ve been hoping wouldn’t act up has decided to.
Need to get it fixed before I fly off to Bangkok on Thursday. 6.42pm and the dentists who are of any good are closed for the day.
Not wanting to get ripped off, or worse, be attended to by a quack doctor, I’m overdosing on pain-killers till the dentist opens tomorrow morning at 10am.
Its amazing how pain changes your perspective on everything. Making the pain go away takes precedence over all else.
heh ….. my pain threshold is VERY low
i’ll happily get doped up to control pain
There’s this thing i know people with chronic pain do… they hurt themselves more… the idea is that by being in control of inflicting pain… u stop the pain you can’t control from hurting u
I think its why people punch walls when they’re upset
