Let’s play a game called Guess Who Has a Terrible Toothache and No Dental Insurance?!
If you guessed Andrea Staats, you win. The prize is… um, there’s no prize. Sorry. Thanks for playing.
This is what I get for waking up in the middle of the night and eating chocolate-raspberry cookies (delicious!) and then going back to bed without brushing my teeth. Just desserts, pun intended.
There’s really no point to this post other than to garner sympathy and helpful DIY dental tips. That is all.
I just asked my dental-student husband...his first response was, "Go to the dentist." His second one was, "Call me!" (you really can...I don't know if I have your email, so you should email me and I'll send it to you. tulaneclay05@gmail.com. We'll be up till about 10:30 or 11 CST.) The third thing he said, as DIY tip, was, "Floss and brush." Very helpful -- that is what we aim for! Seriously, call. he might be able to at least give you some hints as to the problemo. I'll start checking my email.
