And the laughing gas is a gift that just keeps on giving. There was James Taylor again, singing several songs in the course of my visit. He is the 'easy listening' go-to guy, apparently.
I probably wasn't fit to drive home, but being high like I was, I was sure I was okay behind the wheel. No driving mishaps, but upon getting home, I napped. And napped. And slept. Right through dinner time. So heavy...you are getting sleepy...very sleepy. I couldn't shake it, so I gave in. What choice did I have?
Woke up at midnight and watched a recorded episode of Breaking Bad. That show really really got dark. Last time I watched I said to myself, "no more." It was too gruesome. But in my haze last night, I watched 75 minutes. Walt needs to hurry up and die.
This morning, finally, I feel as if I have a clear head. Or as clear as it's gonna get. Whew.
They must have given you a LOT of nitrous as I have it everytime i can in the office for any procedure to make it easier on my TMJ with ideally less Novocaine and they always clear it out with oxygen at the end where I don't leave feeling any of it. I sure enjoy it while it's there though ;) I had some horribly painful experiences with the dentist as a child and it's hard to not think of that when going in (and I'm due for two crowns and maybe a root canal the middle of October. The hope is they can do it all on one day. Maybe I can avoid the root canal but they weren't sure and worse if my office decides they can't, I'll have to go to a specialist for it. ack! That's going to hurt and our bank account more than any because my husband also needs a crown and fixing a bridge. We put off two of those items but now figured we better do it and get it behind us. Thanks goodness for nitrous is all I can say ;)
ReplyDeleteyeah, the first time (10 days or so ago) they adequately cleared it with oxygen; this time, not so much. It really wiped me out.
DeleteI love that photo. I thought at first that you were in a spaceship. Then, I realized that you are... mind flight on nitrous!
ReplyDeleteWe never watched any of Breaking Bad. The whole story line sounded dark and gruesome. I get enough of that in the headlines.
well, that's over!
ReplyDeleterain -- it is worth it to get the work done! fingers crossed they can just take care of the root canal at the same time.
I never watched Breaking Bad, then heard so many that it was well done, so we are watching season one. Wow, it is unlike anything else! As for nitrous... a fabulous invention!!
