Last week I had a bit of a toothache. Not too bad, just a little pressure. Over the days, however, it grew progressively worse. Like, bad. Like, "I cannot chew, my cheek is going to explode, I hate my life" kind of pain. I woke up last Monday and it looked like I had a golf ball in my cheek. Fortunately, I had just purchased one of those discount dental plans, anticipating that I would have to get some dental work done. However, the plan would not be activated until May 1st. Serious panic sets in as I think about that Discovery Channel show that did a mummy autopsy. They discovered that the mummy had died from an abscessed tooth! Aaaaaaahhhhhh! So I called a dentist who was in my network. The company, dental select, was kind enough to backdate my plan to April 1st so I could see the dentist before May 1st. So, he numbs me up and does a pulpotomy, which is basically digging all the crap out and making me ache free. I still have to finish the root canal and then get a crown. It is going to cost me over $1000 out of pocket. Sigh.
But there have been many good things, one of which included a stint on The Radio from Hell Show. For those of you who listen to x96 (96.3 on the F.M. dial), I spent last Wednesday as a member of the extremely popular morning show. I had a blast! Kevin also came in for the first hour and got to meet the DJ's. Very fun. You can go to x96.com and listen to the April 30th podcast. You can hear me talking with them and basically having a good time.
That's us above. They said that when I come into town to call them, so hopefully I'll be able to go back on again. Thanks to all of you who listened!
