Hello! It’s a super gorgeous day today and I was happy to run 4 miles at the beach. Until, I had to tell my group I needed to head out early for a root canal like the service offered by a skilled dentist in Wicker Park.
It wasn’t as bad as I thought – the anticipation really was the worst part. But as long you choose a reputable dental office, you should be fine. The dentist had to use a TON of anesthesia on me though. I’ve read that red heads are more sensitive to pain and need more anesthesia – so I told him to give me a double. Those who have missing teeth may visit their dentist and ask about full dentures and other treatments that will help bring back your full smile. If you’re seeking the best Leesburg dentist near me?

Now I’m completely numb on one side of my face. But, I’m also hungry! I made a big bowl of gourmet canned soup and called it lunch. I also managed to eat a piece of cheese and carrots on the non-zombie side of my face (but the whole time I was worried I was going to bite my tongue off).
Fun fact (?): My brother Michael almost bit his tongue off and needed several stitches on it when we were kids. I’ll spare you the
gory details.
Since I’m using my mom’s laptop I don’t have my normal blogging tools loaded on it yet. I apologize if RER is a bit tragic (just like me and my mouth) today. I am going to fix it all today and be back to my regularly scheduled mediocre blogging ways asap!!!
Plans for the rest of the day:
- Wine tasting (thank you Groupon)
- Packing for VEGAS!!!
- Taking a lot of Ibuprofen
Question: Do Gingers have souls? Please weigh in on my fate…
Lisa says
You poor thing!! I had one last summer and it was just awful! 🙁
Rebecca says
I have to get a root canal, too. Dang, I just missed fre dentistry day, too. Bastards.
My baby is a red head. There’s a soul, but no tolerance. I’m still trying to figure out is there’s difference.
Sarah says
Glad to hear the root canal wasnt as bad as expected! I have never had one and have heard such terrible things! Hopefully ill never need one!
Amber K says
Oh we all have souls. Except cats, cats are evil 😉
Holly says

Pam says

Glad the root canal wasnt too bad. stitches in the tongue sound like the most awful thing ever!
Nicole @ running around the rock says
I’ve read that as well about redheads. I think I read we are like 25% more sentitive. 🙂
Jenniah says
I was watching a movie earlier and realized the little girl Jennifer Stone looks SO MUCH like you! She could be your daughter haha. Just thought I’d let you know!
Kara says
As someone married to a redhead, I never get tired of the jokes 🙂
Hope your tooth/mouth feels better soon!
annette (with a side of brownies) says
My three boys all have red hair varying from strawberry blonde to fiery red and 99.9 percent of the time I think they’re pretty sweet. Although they are the loudest at church, when all the other kids are quietly looking at books my kids are squirming to get down 🙂 Glad you survived the dentist, feel better soon.
Meghan says
I’m super sensitive too, when I had my last round of dental work they had to give me double the numbing meds. My mouth hurt for a week from all the needles. Feel better soon!
alison says
I’d like to think that gingers have souls. Of course, I’m a brunette and haven’t any first hand knowledge, so you can take my opinion with a grain of salt.
I’m glad you survived the root canal; you’re right…the anticipation of any dental procedure is always the worst part.
Stacey @ Being Stacey says
Glad the root canal wasn’t too painful. At least it only hurt your wallet! 😉
Cassie @ Tofu Meets Her Match says
We do get a bad rap! I don’t think it’s that redheads are more sensitive to pain, it’s that pain meds and anesthesia aren’t as effective on us for some reason. After my elbow surgery last year they gave me oxycontin, oxycodone, and then a double dose of morphine, and none of it did a thing! On top of all the sunburning–not cool at all. I hope you don’t have too much pain once the numbness wears off.
