Ooh! My Toof!

Aaarrhhh!

This is me (well not really, but I she's a great representation of me) ...in pain. I'm in the throws of a toothache brought on by what -- a grain from an oatmeal cookie? A piece of whatever from last night's dinner? I don't know but it hurts!!! Ooooh!!!

I feel desperate. What can I do to have the pain go away? This reminds me of that scene in the Tom Hanks movie "Cast Away" -- where Tom Hanks' character has a never ending toothache and he resorts to taking a rock to the blade of an ice-skate (his character is a Fed-Ex exec whose plane goes down and he gets stranded on an island. The ice-skates were one of the many remnants left after the crash! Go out and rent it! Good movie!) and knocking his own tooth out! Desperate...yes. Suicidal...Hell no!
