:(

Pregnancy, yay. I like pregnancy, except for the things it does to your body and the limitations it causes on treating those things. For example, today, I got my tooth pulled. Well, it is more like I got my tooth “surgically removed.” My tooth was the demon tooth, it hated life. It wanted to make me miserable, and it didn’t want to die. But the dentist had other ideas. So he yanked and chipped and sawed the tooth until it was in bitty pieces on a tray. The dentist won, he also doubled his fee from a 125 extraction to a 300 surgical proceedure. Now I am a hillbilly with a missing tooth. There is an identity that will need some getting use to. But atleast it is in the back and the devil tooth is no more. Hopefully we made an example out of it and none of the other teeth will try anything stupid. And so with a big hole in my head do i get the fun stuff like oxycotin or vikes? nope, i get tylenol and no loosy t-shirt. I told the doctor it was my baby and she will probably love oxycotin, because she has been doing nothing but craving beer, sushi and raw meat since day one, but like the beer, sushi and raw meat, she will get none.

And then there is a hurricane heading this way… or so the american news channels want you to believe. I am not worried until the track map shows her actually making that big, giant “U”. I think it is all hype, but ask me again on monday when I am surfing down A1A. David was planning on how to board up the house today, which made me a bit nervous. I won’t worry too much. But that is the problem with a house this close to the beach.

Speaking of surfing main streets, i spoke with nina in Taunton, Mass. She got evacuated and was sitting in a Holiday Inn last we spoke. She’ll be ok.

Love and such from the land of babies, novacaine and hurricanes.
