Surprise visit to the dentist...

I'm really tired, not entirely sure why, but it may just be that it's time to catch up on sleep.

My day...

I got called at 8:15 by the dentist's office to tell me that there was an opening at 8:30 for me to get a filling done. Now this was a surprise, I could make it so I went for it. Great, worked out well. Except...

What happened is when I got home I really didn't want to do anything because my mouth just felt horrible. I couldn't drink anything properly (thankfully I took my meds before going), and I felt like I was totally sluring my speach and everything. And, I was tired. So I went and lay down for several hours. 5 hours later my mouth finially was feeling normal again. But, I felt a little tingle while the filling was being put in, so this is really a good thing. Better than leaving and not ever going back. The dentist is slowly replacing my mercury amalgam fillings with tooth coloured composite fillings. I think this is a good thing.

I ate, I ate sensibly. Today was good that way. I didn't eat any cookies at the Shambhala Centre http://www.nelsonbuddha.com/ which was really amazing. Mind you I know what will happen if I eat sugar, so I don't. Still I had chocolate milk today and that didn't get me binging, but it was also trying to get my blood sugar up quickly, and hopefully keep it up, so that might be why.

Now I need to figure out this sleep thing. Maybe not. Maybe just accept that I'm sleeping because I can, and that's reason enough.

Well, looks like I'm keeping it short tonight. It's late, and I want to get to bed very soon.
