I don't know why i care so much, when i should care at all
really, if there is a all-powerful god up there somewhere, i have to ask, why in hells name is the reason for tooth decay?
I can understand war and polical stife, i can even understand the reason behind the religous right (it's to undermine the strenght of real belivers right? to make it that much harder on them right?)
but tooth decay
thats something i will never understand.
as you can guess i have had a teeth ache for the past couple of days. it's not just one tooth, but the whole of my jaw that aches. if it was just one tooth, i would know where to send the point of the "fine flossers" i use in addition to the toth bush and "cavity preventing" tooth paste i use every single day, useually two-four times a day....
back before the advent of modern medcine (which for dentists is still a couple of years off) we didn't really have anything we could do for tooth decay. other than smash it out while the paticent was drunk, what other options where there?
and in modern days, things aren't much better. the last time i was at the dentist, i had to take the tooth out myself, as the dentist was incompentant. and then the next day i work up parlaized of the right side of my body. now i'm not going to say it was his fault, or that i was unlucky, i was actually very lucky to have caught it when i did, i recoveded nearly fully and i got the sugery i needed to fix the hole in my heart and everything should have been good, when i recovered enough to go to the dentist i would have. except for this one thing. they kept sending me the bill. not tht $860 that i had to pay, not the 1200 copay (to have a patient pull his own tooth out, over two grand?) no, for sixteen dollars that the insurace company had decieded was excessive charges.
and all of that wasn't nessicary, i mean when i come back the next time just jack up my bill by eighteen bucks, and you're more than covered for the sixteen bucks that the insturacence company wouldn't pay plus the interst on that sixteen bucks.
but no,
and they are far from the first dentist to act this way.
every one i've had has acted much the same, oh, so you want a new appontment? well first you've got to pay this three dollar charge from you're last one. oh you want to just add it on to you're next bill? well thats to bad we can't make an appointment with an outstanding charge on you're recod...
ache.
np: the ataris, you're boyfriend sucks

(ps I went to the gym today, and my car fixed itself, as a reminder to myself, if i ever let it go two weeks again between going to the gym, kill me)
