Unplanned Trip to NYC!!
So!!! Seymen and I are heading out on an unplanned trip to NYC!! His aunt that he hasn't seen in years is in the city for business, and his cousin recently moved to the City from out west. He made a last minute decision that we should go visit them! YEAYYYY!!! I get to meet another few family memebers of Seymen!!! I'm so excited!!! We decided to drive instead of fly because it was so expensive and now Thaun and Chau may hitch a ride to and from the City with us :-) Yipppeee!!! It's gonna be greaaatttt! And now...for the best part of all...We are going to stay at the Waldof-Astoria Hotel!!! WAHOOOOOOOOO!! I've never been there...or stayed there! My sister had dinner there once with my dad when he was staying there...so I'm really excited to go there and see it :-)
Today was a sad day for me though...(which makes the NYC trip all the better)...I went to the dentist to have cavities filled and that uncovered the fact that I need to have a root canal. I was so upset that I started to cry in the dentist chair. I couldn't get myself under control. I was totally freaked out to go in the first place because of course whenever anyone gets any dental work done, all the stories start coming out of the woodwork. You always hear the horror stories...So I started panicing in the chair and sobbing uncontrollably. My dentist tried to calm me down, talk to me, tell me it was going to be OK, and it won't hurt that much...I'll have a ton of novacine so I won't feel a thing. She told me she would give me a prescription for some anti-anxiety medicine so I'm not as scared...
I managed to hiccup and sob out that Seymen had one done by her and was telling me how much it hurt...
she was like: "Who? Did you say Daemon?"
I said: "No...Th-eymen (with my numb tounge)...he'th the one you alway-th have to give a ton of novican too when he come-th"...
and she goes..."Ohhh Daemon! Ohh don't listen to Daemon. He is sooooo anxious. He panics at the sight of the dentist office. He has a very low tolerance for dental work...don't compare yourself to him. He never would have made it through the fillings you just did."
So, I sat up, tried to calm myself down and stop crying...Then the dentist started telling the hygentist that "Daemon is the nicest guy..." and that she wanted to hook him up with the front desk receptionist!
So of course I had to break in there: "You cant do that! He-th my boyfriend. Plea-th don't hook him up with your recepthionith!".
At that point she said..."Ohhh well in that case, I won't hook him up with her :-)...He's a really nice guy! But don't take advice from him on dental work...software yes...dental work NO :-)
So afterwards, I headed over to Fuji for some sympathy from Seymen. It turned out that he and Thaun we're outside so when I saw him I just started crying all over again...and then again when I saw Johnny...who told me it wasn't as bad as having my arm taken off :-) Anyway...I feel better now...I got my anti-biotics and I'm focusing on our NYC trip to make myself feel better :-)

You should totally ask them to give you some gas. It is the best stuff ever. It really makes going to the dentist like going to the SPA. I had a filling done and it took a little bit longer to fill so the novacane was wearing. The gas made me so relaxed and chilled that I didn't care one bit. I LOVED IT. Definately, get the gas if you can it's the best.
