Early to bed tonight because I've got to be up early tomorrow.

See on Monday I went to the dentist to get my wisdom teeth checked out. They haven't been a problem or anything but the dentist thought they might be there and was planning to check them on my next visit. My mom's insurance only covers me till August however (well, if I don't end up doing my masters) so she thought I should get them checked now.

I went in on Monday and found I do in fact have two wisdom teeth. One of them is really small and I got the impression that there wasn't really any need to bother with it. The other tooth however is sideways and will eventually start pressing against another tooth so it's gotta go (and the itty bitty one is getting taken out for kicks). While the dentist was doing the x-rays she also did one of my teeth as I had a couple of 'mini-cavities' last time that she planned to keep an eye on. They hadn't gotten any bigger (I'd gotten a bit lax with my length of teeth brushing time but I stepped it back up after I found about the mini-cavities) but she recommended I get little fillings now when my insurance will cover it instead of maybe getting bigger fillings later when it'll cost me $.

I almost said no but I figured if I did end up having to get them I'd get a lot of parental nagging later. I've always been kind of proud of the fact that I had no cavities. Thinking about it now, I'm not quite sure why I was proud. I think maybe it was something that was unusual about me that wasn't also geeky. So now I'm kind of sad about having to get a couple fillings. AND I have to get up for 10 AM!!!!!

In other news I watched the entirity of the live-action "The Tick" over the last two days. I'd seen them all before when they originally aired (except for the one that hadn't aired on TV before which I watched when I first got the DVD at Christmas). Stupid Fox cancelling it after only 8 episodes (9 made).

I remember when the show first came out I was expecting it to be really bad but thanks to some funny writing and great casting (I'm not sure if anyone other than Patrick Warburton could have done Tick right) it turned out to be a really awesome show. Watching the 9 episodes today made me realize just how good the show could have gotten had it been given the time to continue to grow.
