Horrific Weekend

This weekend has not gone as planned, to put it lightly. It started all the way back on Tuesday when I had a root canal. I would like to say it was my first root canal but it was not. I'm one of those lucky people who are blessed with bad teeth. Not in the sense that I have some awful over-bite or snaggle tooth but in the way that I've never seen the dentist and NOT had something come up. Its my lot in life I suppose. I bear it with grace, humility and without a trace of bitterness, as anyone will tell you.
     Getting back to the point, I had a root canal and on Thursday night is when everything went to crap. My tooth started hurt something miserable. Nothing would help and I finally had to call the dentist's emergency line. To make matters worse, I woke up on Saturday with a sore throat and body aches ON TOP of the toothache. I don't think I'm being too dramatic when I say I was on the verge of death. (definitely the proper amount of exaggeration, don't you think?)
    The worse part of all of this was not being able to go to Manila for Josie's baby blessing! Josie would be Steph and Stan's baby and I haven't seen her since she was born. Also, Stephy desperately needs her hair done. But alas, I've just been stuck on the couch, in varying states of consciousnesses, hanging out with this nuisance...

We've been watching a lot of Parenthood on Netflix today. That is, when we are awake. Finally. The only bright spot in this weekend is that I finally got my coffee maker to start working!

And I got to drink it out of my lucky Tom Petty mug!
     On that note I have a lovely house-hold tip for all of you: If something you own has stopped working and you cant figure out what the problem is, try smacking it really hard a few times. I have about a 60% success rate with this method. Ask my television and the lamp on my night stand!

Who says violence isn't the answer?
