I had my root canal yesterday. It wasn't as bad as the first visit (
I guess the antibiotics did their thing) but it still sucked. The novocain wore off about three hours after "the procedure"
and that's when the fun started.
Imagine getting punched in the jaw, in the same spot, for an hour. That's what my jar felt like. As I type this it's eight
in the morning the next day, and my mouth still hurts. I can still hear the sound of that drill screeching in my head. And
dentist wonder why people don't like them.
Tomorrow I leave for my summer vacation with the family in New York. The strip will update when it suppose to while I'm gone.
This is the last strip for the current story. There will be a little bridge story for the next week with an all new arc starting
on July 14th.
And for those of you who live here in Michigan; I will be making my television debut Saturday night at midnight on
Wolfman Mac's Nightmare Sinema. You can read about it
here

This just in.
I did a gust strip for a poker based web comic called Life's A Bluff.
It just went live and thought some of you GAPO fans (from hence forth to be known as The Red Noses) might
get a kick out of it. I think it's pretty funny. You can check it out
here.

I hate the dentist. I don't go very often because I fear that metal thing they scrap your teeth
with. It's like nails on a black board for me. I can feel it rattling in my spine just thinking about it. So I really take care of
my teeth because I want to go to the dentist as little as possible. And my teeth are in pretty good shape.
So I went to visit the dentist yesterday because a filling I got over twenty years ago was bothering me. And it turns out I need
a root canal. A fricking root canal! I'm really very displeased with this development.
It turns out that the sadist that filled this tooth did it wrong and now the nerve is "angry" and needs to be "corrected". So
I'm on antibiotics to calm down the nerve so the new sadist can go in there and tear it out. Joy.
