Life is a Diaper

I need a REAL bandaid

Well, what I really needed was a knife that wasn't that sharp. I sliced the crap out of my finger while I was cooking dinner. I didn't even feel the cut, I just looked down and noticed that I was bleeding all over the place. The only bandaid I could find was a big square one, and those just don't work well for the tip of a finger. It keeps getting in my way when I type, and it's really getting on my nerves.

I finally went to the dentist today, and guess what - I have an impacted wisdom tooth, and it's going to cost me a million and six dollars to get it cut out. Not to mention all of the other stuff he wants to do to my mouth. He gave me a treatment plan, and it's going to cost me over $1300 dollars to get it done. And that's just for the teeth on the left side of my mouth.

Getting it financed is going to be tricky. They don't do in-house financing, so I have to apply for this credit card that can only be used with dentists, doctors, etc. There's just one problem there - I can not get a credit card no matter how hard I try. It's not that I have bad credit, it's that I don't have any credit. None. They said that if I could get my dad to co-sign with me, I could probably get one, and I hope they're right. If I can't get this thing, I can't have the work done, because there's no way I'm ever going to have $400 at one time to pay for just taking out that one tooth.

Oh great, now my tooth is starting to hurt again. This sucks, and I'll be so glad when I finally get this thing taken out! Posted by sabrina at July 14, 2004 11:16 PM | TrackBack
