I had my wisdom teeth pulled. I finally got sick of the headaches and scheduled the appointment. Fortunately, they were fully grown in and all it took was a local anesthetic and he pulled them right out. No trouble at all. I felt fine by the next day and now I feel fantastic because the headaches are gone! YAY!

To top it off, I have the best dentist in the world and he offered to do the surgery for free since I don't have dental insurance. Free. True story. All I had to do was drive 5 hours, which was no problem at all. What does one do for a dentist who does something so nice? Any ideas?

Oh, and I kept my teeth to show them to Nathan. He thinks the tooth fairy should give me $200 for those. I'm still waiting.
