I SURVIVED!!!!
It involved less trauma than usual I think, y’all really did encourage me today. All the suggestions, thinking about y’all and a good strong dose of laughing gas did the trick. I hardly panicked this time, just hard breathing, eyes clamped shut and some loud whimpering but no shaking and sobbing this time.
Really guys, it really was very kind of you all, I appreciate it so much. Especially y’all praying. <3
Now… I’m back and yes, you can be laughing at me because… Well… They decided to leave the laughing gas on through the whole thing… and it was pretty strong. I came closer to losing my mind than I ever have, it was really weird… I even managed to be clumsy and whack the overhead light while changing the song on my phone, the dentist thought I was taking a selfie. I won’t recount the whole thing, but I laughed at myself quite a bit after it was done, partially because I was still loopy.
If you ever want to do something weird, ask the dentist to put laughing gas on you, it will be helpful for writing.
@wordsmith That seriously sounded like something my brother would say. 😉 Well, we go to East Texas several times a year, and I would love to meet my SE friends. Other than that do y’all go to any conferences?
@lin AAHHH!!!!!! I LOVE that song on the piano!!!!!!! I arranged a Fellowship of The Ring melody this past year, and I love playing it… it’s just loud and I get told to stop playing it when it gets to Amon Hen. XD
@eden-anderson come back here, yes both you and Ferdinand.

Hedgehogs are appropriate for every situation. Seriously though, dear Eden and Ferdinand make things better anyway just by showing up and smiling and throwing out hedgehugs galore. ️<3
