I got a bad toothache...

Started yesterday, not too bad early but by evening I was in some pain. Something bad wrong. Feels like a small sword, and I can see the blade shape in my, mind is jammed down into the ghompers sockets of my jaw bone. My jaw bone has no flesh, stripped away by the ravages of pain to a skeleton jaw, exposed to searing winds that bring grit and work it into tender places. The worn and frayed nerve endings can no longer feel the temperature of said wind, they only know pain that is pain, no description can be issued other than that.

Luckily not too heavy a day at school, Only tests are Tuesday and Thursday, and one lab book assignment due the 1st. I hopefully can make it through class today and head to the dentist this afternoon.

I plan on calling him as soon as they open, I'll be on the road between here and Kilgore. I will mention the pistol. He can either see me without an appointment or not see me. It will be his choice, the way my tooth hurts right now it won't much matter if I use it on him or me, whatever brings relief.
