Blog Fart Friday/sorry Thursday

Yep. I'm still here. I haven't posted for a week so I'll do a random post to catch up on everything. I love random posts, both writing and reading them!

Our guinea babies are thriving...they have grown bigger even after one week. They are fiesty, and funny - they scramble around chasing each other, fighting over little pieces of grass, and retire underneath their mumma for their sleeptime.

On a sadder note, we lost one baby who failed to thrive. He or she was smaller than the other babies, and didn't eat but tried to keep up with the others. It was so upseting and I did have a cry when he or she died.....I buried this baby under Girlies (our beagle) tree.......

I went to the dentist on Wednesday to have my follow up treatment. You'll remember I had a bitch and a whinge about how much I hate the dentist, and how scared I was about having my two teeth extracted in the chair rather than in hospital. You can read about this here.

So I went in on Wednesday, nervous and scared. I really like this dentist, he made me feel at ease and the kind lady gave me a scented eye patch to wear so I wouldn't have to watch the horror of having my teeth removed.

But the BEST thing of all (and I keep thinking if I had known about this years ago I would be at the dentist every week) was the sedative gas they offer for scared shitless patients like me.

It was a blast, literally. You suck on this plastic contraption and it releases what I can only describe as a numbing, floaty, fucking fantastic sensation type gas that completely relaxes you. It kind of makes you want to giggle or chat up the dentist. Fortunately I only giggled.

My mask fell off at one stage onto the dentists' shoes, which kind of sent me into a cackling spasm...I didn't really have a care in the world. When my first tooth came out, I vaguely remember going "whoo hooo!". Yes pathetic and embarrassing at the same time.

But the procedure was over and out with hardly any trauma to my sanity, because of this wonderful drug. And I am totally pissed off that I wasn't allowed to take the thing home, it was wireless afterall.

I'm so sorry about the little one that didn't make it. I would have cried too.

However, your dentist story cracked me up!!!

So funny about the dentist. I wonder if that gas is available OTC so all of us mom's can enjoy it?

waah - I wish I had been offered gas - I was while in labour, and it is like a moonwalk that has NOTHING to do with what is going on with your body on earth.

You lucky dog! I'm scared shitless and that gas? Doesn't do a thing for me. So I'm way jealous that you can get high and I can't.
