yes it is an irrational fear

[threeplusfire]

Hell and damnation.

I've cracked a tooth, somehow. It must have had a cavity lurking under the surface to be so fragile. It's freaking me out, and not just because I have no dental insurance and no money. This makes me feel somehow unclean, awful, and I'm developing morbid fantasies of infection and pain. It does not hurt much, except when I push on it. Which I probably shouldn't be doing. Even though I'm sure it would be excessive, a nightmare, I want to rip it out.

I want to scream.

That is a good idea. Thank you. I will have to poke around the university.

Oh no! I hope the floss does not torment you any further. When my mom tried to get me to floss, she bought the cinnamony flavored kind. I was much more interested in just chewing on it. Heh.

The floss is out of my tooth, thankfully. I think they can just sand if off the gap. Sounds bad, eh? :) Doesn't really hurt.
