ABOUT THE TOOTH

Whoa.

That shit hurt.

And it wasn’t so much the drilling and sawing and chiseling because the dentist shot my head so full of Novocain, I couldn't feel my own fucking eyebrows. What hurt was the rubber door jamb they used to prop my jaw open. My masseter muscles were absolutely stretched beyond their means. They were held in tetanic contraction for such a long period of time, the doctor had to duct tape my jaw shut before sending me home.
