A Tooth For A Tooth

Well, I finally did it
I no longer have teeth in my mouth
I asked if I could keep the teeth they pulled
California law prevents them from giving me my teeth
They are considered a bio-hazard
Not just my teeth, but yours, too
From here on in, you won't get the plague by kissing me.

My mouf is all numb
Filled with gauze
So I can't speak
I should be okay in a couple hours
Good thing, in case I need to say something to Rachel Maddow

Next step ...
Dentures
In a few weeks, I will go from looking like Gabby Hayes to
looking like Carly Simon.
I'm so vain!

This will be a short email (for me)
I was up most of the night because I don't have an alarm clock
I had to be at the clinic at 10am
I got there at 9:15
I really was anxious to get rid of the old chompers
I hope you brush and floss and don't have to endure this

But if you do ... then learn how to say “Dang Nabit”
