YAr!

let's see...


i had my first-ever filling at the dentist this week. not painful, but totally uncomfortable and scary. then, later that day, my strep throat came back, which lead to a super awesome shot in the bum that almost made me pass out (i was told by the nurse that if i got it in the arm, my arm would fall off. nice). no oral anti-biotics for me this time, ha...

now, i'm pretty sure that my first-ever filling has partially fallen out.
i sure hope there won't be any more drilling of my tooth...arg!

well, anyway...i heard from joe yesterday! he's totally cool; has a mattress for his bed and lots of food and everything over there. he's worried he'll be bored--i can't tell you how much that makes me smile. YAr to you too, my dear pirate-brother :)
