A Tooth Anomaly.

So the day after I come home from Montreal, not even 24 hours after, I go to the dentist to get my two upper wisdom teeth out. Fun. I hate going to the dentist. The smell, the fear and discomfort of all the steps of a dentist's checkup or filling processes, and smell of fear.. haha. But anyways, I also hate needles. I cringe thinking about it, so I shall skip all those details and fastforward to the end. When my first one finally came out, I watched him stare in absolute astonishment at my tooth out of my peripheral vision. Since I obviously wasn't going to try to talk, I was mentally sending him What?! Is there something wrong with my tooth? Complications? OMG Did you pull out the wrong one?!
Then he pulled the same expression when the second one came out, pausing while holding up my tooth! Wth?!
So afterwards, he said that it was because most wisdom teeth are supposed to have one root. How many did each of mine have? Three.
Err... I knew three was my lucky number? Lots of threes occuring- three people I stumbled upon at the airport, three roots on each wisdom tooth, three realizations that descended upon me like a wet blanket as I walked into my house for the first time in almost 5 months:
1)I missed my dog, and her fluffiness. Not necessarily in that order.
2)It was cold. Strange, coming from Montreal to Vancouver. But I remembered that my family doesn't turn up the heat up up up 'cause heating's expensive. So I can't wear t-shirts like I can in my rez apartment =S
3) I walked into the bathroom, and it was so clean, so big, so familiar, and so clean, I was almost repulsed.

It took me 2 days to finally complete setting up Windows 7 on my laptop. My Dell Studio 14z purchase had come with a free Windows 7 upgrade, and so it arrived at home around November.. I must say, it's actually pretty cool, and I like it better than Vista. Just maybe the slight changes to the look, of which the most significant is the taskbar at the bottom. Dunno what else is very different though, since I haven't played with it that much.
