Before I go into a blog entry about something else, this has to be said and will be the last time It’s written(at least this week):

Please Vote For Us by clicking here and logging in to StarTomorrow [This is pretty much the last chance to get your vote in before this week's deadline on Sunday]

Thanks to everyone for putting up with my emails and blog entries about getting votes. This campaign has been consuming most of my waking hours(and even some sleeping hours).

The ST.com website now let’s us see who other people have voted for … I was MORE than a little bummed out to see that someone I considered a friend did not vote for me on there but I’m not going to have a fit over it. I will say that this person is someone I’ve jumped through hoops for and tried to help out ….so it really sort of made me realize this person is not such a good friend after all. There’s much more to the story but It’s really hard to go into without completely and publicly slamming this person. Sure, part of me would like to go into the details but I’ll take the higher ground and just write it off. A contest is not worth losing a friend over…but if they were never a friend to begin with? Well…let’s just say I’ve learned THAT this week.

With all that being said…let me just say that I’m also overwhelmed with gratitude to the people who have voted for us and helped get us this far. Win or lose, you all are FANTASTIC!

On to other thoughts…

Yesterday, I went to the Dentist and had a wisdom tooth pulled as well as another tooth that originally had a root canal done on it years ago(it cracked so I needed it removed). I’m a little loopy at the moment. Thankfully, they’re in the very back and can’t be seen but…there’s still some pain and I’m still spitting up a little blood. Also, I have stitches in my mouth…not fun. I woke up today feeling like my head was run over by a truck.

My trip to this particular dentist, will be the last. See…I have a huge fear of being put to sleep (I know many others really like that but I just hate the thought of it) and the whole office of people were trying to talk me into being knocked out[not to mention it would be an extra cost]. I’ve had other wisdom teeth pulled before…they just gave me shots and pulled ‘em out…I saw no reason why they couldn’t do that again but they kept telling me that it couldn’t be done (or some crap like that). It got to the point where I jumped out of the dentists chair and went back into the lobby and almost left.

Unfortunately, I REALLY did need the teeth pulled so I went back in and he did it my way…shot me up and pulled… the guy was NOT very gentle with the shots though…I’m sure he had that "I’ll show you, you’re gonna wish you were knocked out for this" thought going on in his head while he was doing it…I didn’t give him the pleasure of even flinching though. But seriously…what sort of messed up dental trip is this? As if people aren’t already afraid of going to the dentist?…this guy was trying to force me to get put to sleep when I tell him I have a phobia of being put under??? Come on!

I did give him a card that said Vote for me on StarTomorrow.com though when I left….the chances of him voting? LOL

Happy Friday!
