I miff my toof :(

[pasithea]

So... Yesterday I had my right front tooth extracted. Goodbye old friend. :( It put up a noble battle. It had held on for twelve yearsdespite all the damage the drunk driver inflicted on me. *sigh* I want my toof back. :( I have stitches and bleeding and a temporary denture now. It's all ugly and uncomfortable. In a year I'll have an implant but it's not the same was my toof. I take good care of my teeth and the only problems they have ever had was due to the actions of one drunkard in a car. :/ Sometimes it really angers me how people like that get little more than a slap on the wrist. The guy that ran down and killed my friend Becky in highschool got only community service and his liscense suspended until he was 25. He was a minor so he didn't even get a criminal record for murdering one of my best friends. :/ Isn't america great? We just let people comit crimes of ignorance and arrogance with very little reprisal. I bet that Bush's daughters never spent so much as an hour behind bars, and even if they'd killed someone, they'd have got nothing. :/

Me. I got hit in Pennsylvania which is a no-fault insurance state, so even though the guy was drunk and ran a stopsign and nearly killed a pedestrian, it wasn't his fault. My car insurance paid for my hospital stay and myc ar insurance rates went up. I lost some of my memory, three teeth, and much of my face. In the years since the accident, I've had continued trouble with my damaged teeth. In the lastyear I spent about $2000 trying to save my tooth and before this adventure is over, I'll have spent almost another $2000 on it and it will last maybe 10 or 20 years, at which point I have to repeat this process. I'm not even counting the time off work or the pain and suffering. *sigh*

Anyhow, enough of this, I guess. Just a little sad and upset. I miss my toof. :( I can't even speak now.\
