Dentistry: created by the Devil? I think so

Dude if you have not seen your dentist in the last six months, run do not walk to the your dentists office and avoid the evils of tooth decay. OH MY GOD I had the worst tooth pain, the worst pain I have ever experienced in my life, last weekend. Thanks to Jas I got some lovely codeine and was able to sleep through the pain...until Monday. I went to a fabulous dentist who numbed the hell out of my tooth before drilling and removing the badness that ailed me. Now I have this weird paste stuff on my tooth. Upon leaving that office, realizing that the visit was not all that traumatizing, I considered suing my parents for sending me to the devil AKA Dr. Drill. I believe some of you will know who I am talking about. The man literally ripped some of my baby teeth out of my head and then had the nerve to tell me that it did not hurt. Well thankfully I am safe from the devil, he has since retired.

I am back to normal and back to work. The cutest kids in the world greet me with hugs and smiles each day. My classroom looks like a bomb may have exploded there, but I did not get to set it off. Hopefully it will all return to normal before the first real day of school.

The greatest part of my job is watching little people go through life experiences for the first time. Today one of my favorite students, Cassian (who is three) was laughing because he realized that even I have parents. He said crinkling his little nose "You don't have a Mom, you're Miss Allison". Damn I love kids.

I will apologize in advance for the number of times that I will refer to my class in this log, but kids are amazing and frankly pretty funny, so there is always some material to share.
