My Visit to the Dentist

Our nephew Randy spent the night with us. So this morning they are playing dentist and guess who had an appointment - me! They actually were very accurate - in some regards. I had to wait in the room and did not get to see the dentist until I fussed to the first assistant (Garrett) and the dentist (Randy) who kept telling me I had to wait half and hour! There were however, some things I've never experienced at the dentist. First, the second assistant (Levi) jumped on top of me! I can say that is definitely a first and I am still laughing about it. Next, I finally persuaded the dentist to take a look. The first thing he wanted to do was check my temperature and informed me that my temperature was "average at 102". After getting a shot and prescribing some vitamins, I was cleared to go by the dentist and told to stay 8 days and ten nights by the first assistant (thankfully the second assistant was not asking me to spend the night - LOL!) Well, I got out of there as quick as I could. Next time, I hope to have my teeth checked!

Wow...an average temperature of 102? Maybe they should have prescribed you some tylenol instead of vitamins. *GRIN*

well, my doctor's appointment was equally surprising. my assistant (Garrett) led me straight to the examination room where he recommended that i lie down. Dr. Randy then proceeded to ask the reason for me appointment. "Headache," i replied, which was the first thing that came to mind. After scribbling on his note pad for awhile, he looked up at me and asked, "Well, have you been wearing your clothes too tight?" Ummm, say what?

But now the second assistant you referred to (Levi), greeted me with the same shenanigans. it must be his way of testing the patients reflexes. and boy do i love that little monkey.
