Curated By Shelley

So I'm trying to figure out what to do with the cats over Christmas...since I'm thinking I'll be in Chicago 2-3 weeks....and with our office on shutdown..my admin won't be close by to come check on them..... Working on the parents to see if they can come home with me. Was PLANNING on DRIVING home. But I think Zella wants to go UPS....

Here's 30 questions stolen from my friend Carolyn: 1. What is in your left pocket? No pockets...changed into my pjs when I got home....is that bad at 6pm? I mean...I've been in them a couple hours now! 2. How much alcohol did you have this weekend? None...I was a hermit this weekend except for a movie Saturday. 3. Do you eat gas station food? Snack stuff sometimes... 4. Ever drive all night to get to someone? HEHE...yep...summer after freshman year. This girl I'd just met through a friend and I decided to drive to peoria to see this guy I'd started seeing right before school got out. I told my mom I was staying at the other girls house and we drive down to P-town. Got there around 3am...stayed for breakfast and drove back. We were so tired we ended up pulling over on I-55 to sleep for an hour! 5. Is Napoleon Dynamite actually a good movie? Not my kind of movie.... 6. Do people that scream into their cell phones annoy you? Except when I'm the one screaming........

That fateful night in November 2003 when I took a little tumble down a big flight of nasty stairs has claimed another victim. Monday I had my very first root canal. What surprised me is that it was NOT one of the fractured teeth that required it...but the only front tooth that did NOT fracture. The signs however, were exactly as Dr. Chin said they would be....the tooth was rapidly turning a dark color. Both the dentist and the endontic specialist said the reason it was THAT tooth that turned was because of the impact it took that night..WITHOUT fracturing. The damage was so severe I had to go to a specialist for the root canal. Luckily...due to his skill it was a FAST 1 hour in and out procedure. And fortunately...because its a front tooth the dentist is working to restore the tooth without a CROWN. We're doing a "walking bleach". They left a hole in the back of the tooth..and every 2 weeks we're putting some bleach INSIDE the tooth...then packing it...
