seeking medical help!

Sunday, December 23

Okay, so I have this problem with my wisdom teeth. My last trip to the dentist was a while back, and he said they were fine. Well, they're not now. I keep getting gum infections because they didn't fully break through the gum. So I get bits of stuff stuck back there and they get infected. These infections can be really annoying. So I got some stuff that's supposed to help relieve pain and promote healing.

I was standing in front of the mirror, having just applied some of this stuff to my infected gum, when the brilliant idea struck me that I should read the instructions. "If swallowed, seek medical help or contact a poison control center immediately." I looked in the mirror at my still-open mouth and this stuff (which apparently is poisonous) plastered all over my gums and thought, "Maybe this isn't intended to be put in your mouth." So I flipped the packaging over and checked the label, expecting it to say "for use on feet only." I'm not sure whether I was more relieved or perplexed to find the words "Oral Anesthetic." Go figure.

I looked in the mirror and slowly closed my mouth. I tried really hard not to swallow - really, I swear...
