QFT. Coupon clipping is a lifestyle choice.

Additionally: Today I'm gonna get a filling without novocaine.

I guess it never seemed worth it to get a Sunday subscription just for the coupons. Because I never have and likely never will read the Sunday paper. Or any other day, for that matter.

Frugality has hell of limits.

(I don't get the Novocaine ever, myself.  In my adult life, whenever I've needed something done that requires it, I instead opt for the Gas.  Actually I demand it even for cleanings.   "Look, I'm going to put up with your bullshit.  I won't make any noise or squirm, but... papa's gotta get something for him.")

I don't get the paper either - I get the coupons from my parents. My dad reads the Sunday paper, but Mom doesn't use coupons very often.

I didn't opt out of novocaine for financial reasons - I just hate being numb the rest of the day. I'd rather have 30 minutes of pain than 5 hours of drooling on myself and not being able to speak.

It actually wasn't that bad. I could have asked for the needle at any time, but I didn't feel like I needed it.

[smick]

I didn't assume that it was, but the juxtaposition of coupon clipping and then low budget dentistry options were too good to pass up.

Seriously though...if you haven't before: Get the gas.   Thank me later.

I could see myself getting in way deep with recreational dentistry due to the gas.

You're temperament's wrong for the priesthood,
And teaching would suit you still less.
Son, be a dentist.
You'll be a success

[pmcd9]

You don't have to go to the dentist to get the Nitrous.

[smick]

People have suggested that to me.

I need the dentistry to keep me in check. 

Do you think junkies would get so bad if they needed to have that fuck*ng Cavitron abomination ran over their gums every time they needed to fix?

"Oh man... I really could use some smack right now...but ugh...just thinking about the noise that thing makes..."

When a good time turns around
You must Whippit
you will never live it down
unless you Whippit
No one gets their way
Until they Whippit

[theinevitable]

I did not know that that is what Whippits were. I never got why that was the name for that.

Oh.

[smick]

The Whippet wishes he were a pug.

[Choop]

dangit smick i was halfway there

Oh.

Step 1: Buy a whipped cream can.
Step 2: hold mouth over business end and 'slightly' press the nozzle until gas but not cream comes out, while inhaling deeply.
Step 3:  Be high for 30 seconds.
Step 4: Discard useless can of cream and wonder what the fuck you are doing with your life.

Today my LG superphone finally fell apart.  It's served me well for nearly five years.

The Droid came out this week.

Is it Fate?

...I instead opt for the Gas....

drug story:

when i was 11 or 12, i was getting a cavity filled and the dentist gave me the gas.  talk about the raddest buzz ever!  it was the coolest, freakiest, most intense thing!  when it kicked in, i felt like i was full of hot water.  the elevator music they were playing over the PA system started to sound like techno, and it was pulsating to the rhythm of these acute electrical pulses all over my body, especially in my toes and finger tips.  when the dentist would talk to young woman assisting him, it sounded like some sort of strange alien language.

i only have 2 drug stories, and thats the coolest one.

[theinevitable]

I've never had a weird reaction to the gas. My friend, who is a lesbian, hit on the nurse in front of her parents. I forget whether this was before or after she came out to them, which I guess makes it a less/more funny story.



Oh man, asking "is something wrong?" and getting an extremely long pause, and then "no, nothing" is not a good feeling.
It is funny to see where my mind goes when I try to figure out what that pause means.

In other news: today, I got an email from Dan Deacon. It felt kind of cool.
I am downloading my talented friend's DJ mix. If it is anything like his live sets, it will be awesome.
