On my way to he dentist. I did it, dook boh at once. Man, they seem ed to hit pretty fast. i’m kindsa loosey-goosey feeling, can’t relly hold still very well. It is a pretty nice felling, I must say though. We’ll see what happens in there, there sposed to really come into their own in an hours or so, it’s mbeen maybe 20 minutes since I took them. I am happy, ifeel calmy at peace with everybody. And happy. But still steady as a rock, incomplete controal of my fackalties.
Update:
I jogged out to the car and masterfully drove the short distance to the dentist’s office. We traded a few wisecracks and he started in on his tortures.
When it had come to pass, Dent (you call your doctor “doc,” I decided you can call your dentist “dent”) told me, he says, “You were snoring there for a bit.”
His assistant agreed. Interesting. I remember being pretty tired but I never thought I slept. Dent thought I was out for up to half an hour.
That stuff hit fast, but it left quick too. I think next time I’ll two valium and one halcion.
PS Not sure what was up with all the typos, I’m usually pretty well on top of that kind of stuff.

Ah, better living through chemistry. Sounds like you are the rock of control there!? {:^)
You must have the meanest dentist in all of Hoosierville to have to get zombied before a visit.
I hope that the dentist’s chair has a seat belt! {:^)

Since you are feeling all peaceful toward everybody right now, I think now would be a good time to reiterate that you are a bad singer.

I too, dread dental visits. I won’t tell you how many years it’s been, just because my hygienest left. I think I’m headed for Valium land….it does work, you just need ENOUGH of it. :)

Yeah Tom, I noticed a few typos there too – comes from not being entirely in control of all your ‘fackulties’. Wonder what in the world happened? Jeepers, for the amount of stuff you’re taking, Dent might as well just do conscious sedation on you pre-op. Does he have the capability to do that?

You know, that sounds like a good post to get up and read for the entire congregation during sharing time. Entitled “Thomas Completely Doped” OK, OK, it was just a few typos, right?

TS: Yes. And no! I asked for it, nay, demanded it!
You’re the Worst: Sigh. Last time I referred you to a stellar sound clip!
FP: I certainly didn’t have enough then! And Dent was not happy with me the time I told him I took two Vals. He didn’t seem to mind this time when I told him i took a val and a hal. He just laughed, if I remember right.
Ed: I don’t know, I’m not sure what that is. His first choice would have been to fit me with a gas mask and pump me up with nitrous or whatever that stuff is. But he couldn’t/wouldn’t because of my violent asthma.
Kait: Well, I’m not going to but I guess you can if you really want!

I’m with you there–I HATE dentist visits too, and spent almost 3 hours with mine this week. But if you consider the alternative, having teeth ain’t so bad! Faith

[…] I’m becoming increasingly bitter and cynical about my absurdly inept valium and halcion. Each use renders it less and less effective. This time I took 2 valiums and 1 halcion and they must have just canceled each other out. Very disappointing. I walked in to the dentists office cheerful, bright, alert, witty, and charming. In an ideal world I shouldn’t even remember arriving. […]

[…] Ow. Tomorrow afternoon, three o’clock, me and the doc and much valium and halcion will take this little beast on and battle to the death. […]
