Hos tannlegen, 2:3

At the dentist, 2:3.  As the title implies, I'll be back again in a few months.  Great.  The dentist, Lars Haakon Lunde, was able to remove most of the (apparently pretty big) cavity, but part of it will have to wait.  I'll be honest I didn't fully understand the explanation, but the main point was that he is trying to avoid a root canal.  He was worried about getting too close to the nerve, and for some reason or other coming back later (April 29th), removing this filling, drilling out more of the cavity and putting in another filling.  So today I went in, and the office was all but empty.  It was only Lars and a dental hygienist, nobody at reception.  He started with getting me numbed up, which seemed like a good idea.  After a while of drilling and jack-hammering I had a gigantic hole in my tooth.  He then filled it in with some sort of a filling that smelled like gum-drops; the initial consistancy was probably similar as well.  So that filling took little to no time to put in, and I was done!  It was funny because the numbing job had to have been near perfect; there have definitely been times that I have gotten numbed and couldn't feel a very good half of my mouth, but somehow would still feel a little bit when I would get drilled.  This time the numbness was limited to just the area of my tooth, and I never felt anything.  So now you'll have to wait until April 29th to finish Lukestannssagaen, the saga of Luke's tooth.  

Other than having my teeth attacked, I went grocery shopping, meeting Gustie and Sarah on the way as they were coming out of the post office.  I got the materials for a good ole American dinner one of these days: BBQ chicken, french fries, and corn on the cob.  They sell corn on the cob in cans here, and they come from Canada apparently.  Kitchen mate Christoffer was eating some about a month ago, which of course made me want to eat some.  It will probably be pretty weird eating corn out of season, since I literally only eat corn on the cob during the early fall.  

In other news, I've just discovered how to set up a random playlist (more or less shuffle) on my computer, which is sweet.  Completely eliminates the need to choose music!  

We're hoping to go sledding/snowboarding on the hill again tomorrow, always a good time.  Possibly watching a movie tonight at Grivi where Gustie lives.  Other than that, I think I really need to study a lot.  There are papers to be done now.
