Having a toothache is bad.
Having a toothache start the day before you leave for Halloween vacation is bad.
Not getting to eat any Halloween candy because you have a toothache is bad.
Having your toothache get worse even though you haven’t eaten any Halloween candy is bad.
Finding out from your dentist when you finally visit after your Halloween-candy-free Halloween vacation that you probably need a root canal is bad.
Getting to the desk to collect your prescriptions and finding out you have a bill to pay is bad.
Needing to schedule a root canal during NaNoWriMo is Very Bad.
Having to move aside a fundraiser box filled with Halloween chocolate bars and candies to have room to write the check for the bill you discovered after visiting your dentist for a toothache that you’ve had for a week and which you – like an obedient dental zombie – avoided eating Halloween candy on your Halloween vacation for is irony.
Knit-Write 
It’s either irony, or chapter two of your nano.
Yuck, too bad about the naughty tooth. I am the kind of dental patient who has to get all hopped up on Valium just to set foot in a dentist office and I didn’t find my one of my root canals too bad. The other wasn’t good, but I think that was more the dentist than the root canal. She was not a nice person.
I am working on a little parcel to send out your way. I need to put some stuff that smells in there so it will hopefully disguise the little cutting and keep any dogs confused.
yuck yuck yuck. 😦
Then again, you could write when you are drugged up after the root canal. The story could take a very interesting turn…
Raunchy! My sympathies. Though it would suprise me little if you devised a way to keep writing whilst under the drill…
