As anyone who's ever read Newton knows, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Now, substitute "action" with "piece of wonderful, fantastic, good news," and "reaction" with "piece of terrible, horrible, no good, very bad news."
Basically, I went to the dentist today. And found out that I may have to get a root canal done next month. My reaction?
NOOOOOOOOO
Right. So, I can safely say this is something I'm not looking forward to. With one exception, most of the dentists I've seen in the past have been great, so I'm not too worried on that count, but I've also heard that there tend to be far more complications once root canal work is done. (If anyone can disprove this, I'd be glad to know.)
It also doesn't help that I think of this song from Little Shop of Horrors whenever it comes to dental check-ups (thanks to being part of a production that performed this play in middle school) most of the time.
Aside from that, sparring was also kind of "ow"-inducing in Tae Kwon Do today. More than usual, that is. But fun nonetheless. And I got the chance to try some new flavors of Italian ice today! Java chip, chocolate hazelnut, and key lime. The place that specializes in it on Bell Boulevard, Ralph's Ices, has a ton of available flavors; way more than what I've seen stocked at most ice cream shops. Nothing quite beats apple crumb, though -- at least not yet.
And despite what the above sounds like, no, I don't actually have sugary desserts that often. Despite having cavities. Which brings this post full circle, more or less.
