circless...

So, hey, wow. Apparently, my day *could* get worse. And here I was, thinking the whole walking home in 50-degree weather with rain was, y'know, as bad as it got.

Nope.

I broke a tooth.

A molar. One that had previously been filled, and is now missing its. fucking. side. The side facing in to my tongue.

I expect to slash my tongue at least once.

Luckily, it doesn't hurt. In fact, I'm not entirely certain that it didn't break down into the gum, but... I suppose I'll find out eventually. Y'know, when I have this thing called money to go to this place called the dentist.

Oh, yeah. Money.

So, next month, sometime. After paying all of the necessary bills, and begging Timey's parents for grocery money, I might *just* be able to afford a cleaning.

Oww. What did you break it on?

Dunno if you have a regular dentist or not, but... when I broke a tooth, my family dentist fixed it for $35. When I re-broke it in Toronto and couldn't get home, the campus dentist did the exact same job and charged $250. It had to be done, I was afraid the nerve might be too close to the surface and I didn't want to leave it because the tooth might die. But shop around if you can.

Oh... and I looked at your icon following my post and the first thing I read was:

"What did you break it on?"
"I blew up a sun."

*snerk*

And I don't have a regular dentist. I haven't even had the money to get a cleaning.

I am going to have to call places, find out. Sigh.

So, now the list reads: fill one gaping hole, fix one broken tooth (if it can be fixed, that is)

Never rains but it pours. Guh. So sorry, darling.

Ow. *hugs* :(

That's mhat happened to one of mine a couple years back, even though I had a dentist, had to wait over a month for treatment and by that time it broke *again* and they had to remove the whole thing.

But yeah, be careful with that shrp edge, I got far too many little scratches on my tongue over that month.
