Soo to start my day, an unexpected dentist appointment ... hurgle!
I drove down to the north shore, in the van, with Liz and my Father. It was a bit of a groggy trip, wasnt really awake but I managed... didnt hit any old people or careen into any buildings soo all went well. Until I got into the dentists' office. To find, to my dismay... a new dental hygenist...
The one I normally have is on maturnity leave... so, good for her, but I am left with the... shall I say, inexperianced. I cant remember her name, except that if I could I would... well I dont know what I would do, but probly shout it very loudly. She was old, a little wrinkley, and all around a nice person, but we all know dentists change once your in their seat! hehehe
And soo it began,
"So, my name is _____ and I am your new hygenist. All we are going to do today is check your teeth and give them a polish."
"Oh Hey..." I garggled as she had already shoved some instrument into my mouth.
Little did I know that this "check up" would be a roller coaster ride of pain, bad memories, and blood.
She peered through her glasses, and into my mouth... finding not too much to convict me about.
SQUISH! the little poker thingy ( I'd like to find out what those things are called soo when I am Prime Minister, I will enlargen them and use them on dentists across the globe) stabbed into my gums with such ferocity that both my legs kicked upwards, obviously not noticing, she proceeded. Poking and prodding in and out of my gums and teeth, until all i'm left with is a bloody stump of?... not gums but... pretty much just cells....
Now, you've all been to dentists... and we all know how hard it is to talk with the widgets crammed in our mouths. Most of the time they understand us, but some times it is a misunderstanding of such proportion that it would put even George W.Bush to shame. ( he said MISUNDERESTIMATED in one of his speachs once... deffinetly not a word..)
ANYWAYS.
I was frozen. now when dentists torture me, I normally dont complain... like the last dentist post I had on here.
Soo I didnt this time... But honestly, can they not see that my gums are splirting blood all over the place... my body jerkes up and down everytime they poke. And that my face is bursting blood vessels.
And so I endured it.
Then came the chloride... WOW! I normally get the foam stuff that goes into the yucky foam caps, that leave a disgusting texture on your mouth. Well she didnt know... soo she gave me the liquid.. mint. Then came the projectile vommit. then.......
kidding about the vommit... I was done.
Then just to make things better!....
"Let me get you a new tooth brush, new floss, a package of gum, a toy, and a briefcase full of 100 dollar bills, for taking home" She piped up cheerilly.
"Uh... no thanks... I'll just take the floss... I have a good tooth brush at home"
And I scurried out of there as quickly as possible...
"It was nice meeting you! seeya in 6 months" She said with a sadistic grin.
K soo she didn't offer me a briefcase with one hundred dollar bills in it... but it was a terrible dentist experiance, that I am recovering from still.
More adventures with Josh, and his No School Monday... Why? you ask...well... Liz is here and... well i didnt want to do school hahaha.
Soo there I was, entranced, standing in the men's clothes section of Wal-Mart, staring at the crowd of peculiar customers waiting in line at a booth. At the top of that booth, a sign, on that sign the words "FREE" now if you've ever been shopping you know the feeling of seing the red signs that say free... and then some sort of catch in small letters at the bottom of the sign. Well, this sign, in bold letters said "Wait In Line For Your FREE Knife". As you can probly guess, you know who the majority of the crowd will be... moms, grandmas, and... well women, of course the occasional small child that is learning how to read and is male, and sees the word knife and goes "oooooh". But in this case, it was moms and old people haha. All waiting in line, thinking that the knife will just come into there hands and they can run out of the store thinking they've got a deal. Well, then the sales person arrives... not your typical salesperson, a women hehe....... if you didnt laugh... it was a sexest joke that women are incapable of doing anything other than cooking, cleaning, and well you know the other one but this is a G rated blog soo. ANYWAYS.
The salesperson was a woman... dressed in a suit. Now... I thought women knew fashion well, let me tell you something haha. I wont bash women anymore... They are wonderful creations from God and we wouldnt survive without them. Soo she was in a suit, not just any suit but the kind where you look at them and projectile vommit again all over the shnazzy clothes rack you're leaning on. A red, gray, and black striped suit jacket, probly from value village... which means from the 80's... and black dress pants. Her hair style was... well interesting to say the least ( I am not judging by any means:P)
ANYWAYS.
She started her selling that day in Wal-Mart... and did a fine job of it. The knives she sold were... Amazing! I am aloud to say that... because well... knives are cool.
But the packages she sold... 28.99$ for a whack load of knives(28.99 each(3), two pearing knives 20$ each, a fishing knife 40$, two little juicer thingy's 5$ each, and a pair of eversharp, the original amazing scissors 20$) all for 28.99$. almost 200$ in products.
And she sold them left, right, and centre. But I watched her... oooh did I watch her... and like all creepy saleswomen, she had that look in her eye, that look that says "I am holding some sort of information back from you, vital information... but you can TRUST ME!"
Fortunetly my mother was not in that crowd of people... and fortunetly our family is as cheep as missionaries right now... or I would have done some persuasion myself for my mother to buy them. Hehe. BUT! I realized we don't need them, and I can bet that all the people there didnt need them, but just the need to have the best, drove them into the sale. Mwahaha!
Soo I got sick of the drama and left Wal-Mart.
All in all an amazing Monday.
Now enough laughter and exaggeration.
Liz you are my favourite sister... Love you!
Now a bit about my school.
I am doing a bible study book right now, that is focusing on Psalms and Proverbs
And as it is going through Psalms it is telling the background for each Psalm. And almost everyone of them is based off of Samuel... well obviously because that is when David lived... but still, almost all of them actually has to do with a certain section in 1st Samuel.
Check this out...
There is some death, soo be warned... well alot of death actually. I just found this whole thing fascinating... The connections between Samuel and Psalms.
In 1 samuel 21 David meets Ahimelech the priest in Nob... David needs some food... Ahimelech gives him the holy bread because there was nothing else. David then asks for a sword... because he lost his or something. Ahimelech has the sword of Goliath which was being held at this temple.
So Ahimelech gives the sword to David. Saul, who was trying to kill David at the time, had his chief herdsman Doeg at this temple and he overheard all this and thought it was a plot to kill Saul. So Doeg goes to Saul and tells all. But lying, says that Ahimelech helped David in his plot to kill Saul. Soo Saul calls for Ahimelech and his family who were priests at Nob aswell. With alot of anger, Sauls yells at Ahimelech, "why have you helped my enemies try to kill me... blah blah blah
wimper wimper."
Ahimelech " I have not, surely you know that David is more trustworthy than anyone you know"
Saul... more angry shouting... " You shall surely die for this"
So Saul tells his guards to kill Ahimelech and his family... and they refuse.
Then Saul tells Doeg, the chief herdsmen, and traitor, “You do it.” So Doeg the Edomite turned on them and killed them that day, eighty-five priests in all, still wearing their priestly garments. Then he went to Nob, the town of the priests, and killed the priests’ families—men and women, children and babies—and all the cattle, donkeys, sheep, and goats.
An evil evil man, only doing his evil Kings request.
Which brings us to Psalm 52, Now that we know the background of this Psalm... Go read it in your own bible and then read this story again. Sick! but very interesting.
Soo this brings the conclusion to my blog post, and if this is not worthy of atleast 5 comments... I dont know what is.!
Thank you all!
