la_rainette*beams to show off new tooth* Nope, I can't even show it off, it is hidden all the way in the back. Damn. It's pretty though.
Anyway. All done for the time being. *beams again, for entirely different reasons*
It went well: I remembered to bring my headphones and CD player and music, which, let's face it, weren't quite enough to drown out the deafening TAKATAKATAK of the major roadworks done in my mouth, or even the annoying mosquito-like bzzzzzzzzzz of the detail stuff, but at least made sure I didn't have to listen to my dentist
1) Hum. He hums all the time. And I am left to wonder whether he is singing to the radio off-key and off-beat, or following his own unrecognizable musical agenda and humming something like "the Walkyrie in Greece" while the radio blares pop stuff. Very bizarre.
2) Discuss with his assistant. Last time, they discussed the best ways to end the sufferings of his assistant's ageing and ailing hamster:
assistant: Well, he IS very old.
dentist: Can hamsters swim, do you know?
assistant: Now, really!
dentist: I just wanted to say, living close to lake Ontario can be an asset sometimes.
assistant: *giggles*
dentist: I could arrange something, you know, for a small fee.
So. I am happy to be done. And lo and behold, I am also still alive. I don't know how the assistant's hamster is doing, though.
My dentist is a professional hitman. *swallows hard*

Beam = pain
