returned from my cross-coast excursion

returned from my cross-coast excursion for a lil’ family vacation, friend’s wedding, anniversary, all wrapped in one.. and to top it all off, half a weekend of toothache, and a root canal to go with it all. 🙁 unbelievable, wouldn’t you say?! the pain was excrutiating, right in the middle of the day after lunch at Legoland, which I must say is the best theme park in the world, my favorite anyways; and I couldn’t endure the pain long enough to return back East, even on codine, so I submitted myself for a root canal.. with local anesthesia (sp?) and vocadin (sp?), it’s been rather bearable, and certainly much less painful than the hours prior… this pain thing draws all your attention and focus to it, and i can’t remember anything else that happened during that day.. lost a night of sleep the night before too..
