holey moley!

i have a hole in my tooth =(

oh so that explains the headaches and gum pains, yes i know the latter should have been an obvious sign but oh well we always hope for the best.

a hole in my tooth = hole in my wallet? i certainly hope not! i have holidays to finance!

and yes right now i'm supposed to be marking but no i refuse to do so, even if i know this is a futile show of feeble resistance, made all the more pathetic by the fact that in 4 days' time, 160 essays will be sitting pretty on my desk, waiting for the carnage- unleashed unapologetically by my red pen- that is sure to follow.

back to my point.

yes i have a hole in my tooth and while it's most traumatising, it's fascinating as well. i can't help running my tongue over it to feel the tiny chasm that used to be my whole tooth, and since my teeth are considered small, that's a pretty big deal. oh how we all love to lick our wounds.

this might be just a small hole to many, but it matters to me!

because when you have so little of something, losing even a minute amount hurts. and yes i meant that in the most literal way possible, so don't bother looking for a hidden meaning.

rarrr.
