a caffeine addict visits the dentist

CK posted 1 year 5 weeks ago — The dentist took an x-ray and checked out my tooth.

“Just a little decay,” he said. “I’ll clean it and fill it temporarily.”

“What, now?” I said. I looked at my girls. They were still smiling, but we’d already been there 20 minutes. Um, hello…

So he started drilling.

And ONE started talking.

“…and I get a piece of candy when Mommy forgets to buckle me in…she keeps M&Ms in the car for when that happens…’cause M&Ms are my favorite…I like lollipops too…especially those ones on the rings…but she doesn’t keep those for when she forgets…Mama? Can we get those for the next time you don’t buckle me in?”

This was when the dentist broke in with a “Hmmmm…I’m going to have to switch to a bigger drill. It won’t hurt, but the vibrations will be stronger.”
