Wisdom Teeth

This afternoon I went to the teeth surgeon,so he could look at my teeth and tell me all the scary stuff that will be done to my teeth and careful care that will be needed to be done post procedure. When the nurse asked how old I was,and I said fouteen she said "You are a very tall fourteen year old... I thought that was kinda cool. Then the Doctor came. Dr. W. had ultra cold hands,maybe it was to keep germs or what not away. He basically went over what his nurse before hand had informed us of. Honestly,the scariest thing I am afraid of is being asleep. They are gonna do it by IV which is even creepier. I mean I watched my blood be drawn by my PEDs doctor,I also watched when I had to get a tetnus shot and all my other ones too!!! I guess I am just afraid of the initial feeling of it. My Mother is a definite wealth of information with all her "I knew a guy/girl/your Dad/Me who..." and there is always a bad experience they went though. If you are already nervous enough,why do parents tell you all the stuff that COULD go wrong instead of saying "everything will be ok?". One bad thing about having parents who are both "in the medical field",they always have bad stories about patients they have treated in their lifetime. It is always real comforting to hear these stories before you go get whatever is needed(best said sarcastically). On the other hand they always get what Doctors are saying about you,so there is no worries of not "getting it" as some non-medical parents can sometimes be. It was funny when the Doctor put up my x-ray of my teeth and my Mom exclaimed "Her top wisdom teeth are very near her nasal cavity". Probably until my Mom said she was a X-ray tech did he know why she knew that. All in all everything went ok and I will be getting the un-looking forward to pulling of all four wisdom teeth on July tenth....whooopdido(best said sarcastically again)

King Arthur And His Knights Of The Round Table

O my gracious,tonight I have finished "King Arthur And His Knights Of The Round Table". It was SO crazy awesome. I had tried to read it before but was defeated because I wasn't concentrating enough to understand it,so I put it down until a later time. When I heard the name I was like "This will be so boring and old it ain't funny",but once I got into it I LOVED it. I am actually thinking about giving it to Mr A. because I think he might like it. To show how much I liked it I started it today and finished it TODAY. I have read a book in a whole day before,just this book had five other books in it and you needed complete silence to understand the dialog and such. Basically the whole book is about Knights(as it says on the title),Kings(also on the title),Dukes,Ladys,Princesses and so on and so forth. The end of it and some of the middle is sort of Soap Opraey with secret children,secret romances and murder. A few of the senarios seemed like they came from the Bible. The knights and kings pray during turbulent times,some Knights stumble and fall along their way in "the walk" some don't get back up and just grovel in their sin others shook themselves off and asked forgiveness of God and if their was a person involved. I highly recommend this book to thirteen or so up (There is bloody,war-torn nasty parts probably not suitable for whittle minds)
