Back to Journal ![]() « The Tolerant Miss Kent | Night of the Living Tooth | The Tooth is Gone » Night of the Living Tooth May 30, 2001 (Selected republication of old entries from the pre-Movable Type journal...) Just over seven years ago (I was in high school--this was about the time I first asked out my wife-to-be, come to think of it), I had a root canal. That's where a tooth is in such bad shape, that they have to kill it. So I've got this dead tooth and it's staying dead like dead tooths are supposed to. Then for no reason whatsoever, it wakes up. It's alive again. It's been embalmed, right? It's been killed and gutted, right? So how can it be alive? It's alive and infected and it hates me for what I did to it seven years ago. I'm going to turn this into a horror-film someday. Just wait. I do have some minor news to report, but I think I'll handle that when I'm feeling a bit more clear-headed. |
