Things must happen in threes...and I am waiting on the third....

First, my lightning's battery took a complete dump on me at a gas station. No warning or anything. My truck acted like it was possessed.

I drove to my family's house to work on my mustang for the first time in a while. First day of working...no mishaps. The work actually went very smoothly. Second day, I get up, and start drilling out spot welds in the engine bay. I thought to myself...damn, i need to go get shoes on. So, I hop out of the engine bay to go get some shoes. As I do, my foot gets caught on a piece of loose metal and 'scratches' it. Or so I thought...I landed on the ground and looked down and have never seen a pool of blood that big before. I collapsed and squeezed my wound on my foot back together and called for some help. As soon as my father came to the door, all I could say was....I need gauze and take me to the hospital. They knew something was wrong then because I NEVER go to the hospital. Bandaged myself up...went to the ER.

7 stitches later from the HOTTEST...MOST HOTTTETEST DOCTOR that I have ever seen (me, of course, covered in sweat, and grime, no teeth brushed, no BO juice) I was ready to go. The assistant wasnt bad either.

So....now I am stuck 3 hours from home because the doc said I couldnt drive.

good times working on the car.

Hey man, I'll take it off your hands. $3000 for the whole deal, sound fair?

Those are the worst man, those super clean cuts you really don't feel but they go in like an inch into the flesh. Reminds me of the super hot orthodontist's assistant that worked my braces every month in middle school. Leaned over like that, I had a great view good times

I was 17 and had it bad for my dentisit's assistant. Gorgeous blond-haired 25-year-old with the most inviting smile (and deep vee-necked scrub tops); made me forget that she was married to some big honkin' Marine from Georgia.

ANYWAYS, the dentist (Dr. Bicknell) has me in the chair, and has pumped a couple-three-four syringes of Novacaine before yanking a bad tooth to replace it with a gold (alloy) crown - good insurance my parents had! He says, "I know you're sensitive about your teeth, and we've got a couple more doses of Novacaine loaded up; so, if you start to feel the drill, just tap Diane ( ) on the shoulder."

So he's drilling away, and I start to feel it. Then I really start to feel it! When I'm pretty sure he's gonna drill through my lower jaw and into my chest, I kinda "stiffen up" in the chair. Diane ( ) notices this and starts reaching over for another needle full of Novacaine about the time I'm thinking "Time to tap Diane ( ) on the shoulder" Then the drill REALLY hits a nerve! Diane ( ) is leaning over reaching for another syringe; and, when the drill starts ripping the nerve out of my jaw, my "tap on the shoulder" turns into a HARD backhand to her chin. Knocks the poor girl clean off her stool and into the wall

I haven't been to a dentist since. About ten years ago, one of the teeth that Dr Bicknell was gonna later fix blew out its filling; then pretty much fell apart right there in my mouth. Spent most of a month of night shift, with a needle-nose pliers and almost a full case of Anbesol; taking that tooth out, piece by piece. Not going to a dentist ever again - it's just too rough to think about

Oh, yeah. I think what started that later tooth to fall apart was when the dying starter motor came off it's mount on the block of the Rice-Eating Generic Chevy Truck, and smacked me on the side of the jaw. So, it doesn't matter who made the car/truck; you're always most hurt by the one you love.

I can't believe that dentist man, he shoulda numbed you a lot more before the drill. I know you feel bad about clocking the hot chick, but I see it going down in my head and I have to laugh

She was ok though, right?

Yup! My first go with "Larry" (my F150Lari--at) was a new fuel filter. Scrubbed the skin off two knuckles. Second time was a simple oil & filter change....two different knuckles when I punched the crossmember as the drain bolt finally let go. And a big scrape on the knob of my left wrist when the oil filter finally came loose and I smacked my hand on the front diff.
Yes, Larry and I are now blood brothers

Yeah she was okay and actually pretty cool with it. When I went back for "fitting the crown"; Diane was joking about it. She even had a baseball catcher's mask that she was curious if she should wear.

Yeah, I knew I was

had to go back to get the wound checked out...

I was standing there on crutches in the waiting area and this hot chick walks in. Short T shirt, sun glasses, long dark haird, short shorts, and a bag. I thought to myself...1 damn, she is hot. 2. where do I know her from.

Low and behold...it was my doc. Had the same one both times I went to the ER. So hot, so nice. Wish I had married a doctor.

Yeahyeahyeah, we rembmer all the rest!

You lucky dog!!! Last time I had to go to the ER (dog bit me on-the-job) my doc was some scatter-brained dude who looked like a homeless person; and the nurse was this old bag with an entire Walgreens Drugstore full of makeup troweled onto her face, something growing between two front teeth and an attitude that scared Mrs StangDreamin' (who's been Nursing for 23 years!).

What ER to I gotta visit to meet Dr Hottie????

Not anywhere near YRMC, I promise... and sides checking out docs there kinda really gets ruined when mom strikes up personal conversations with every single doc in town... Not to say there wasn't a cute doc after the s10 incident, but then mom asked him how his honeymoon was and then No Kttn reappeared from a bathroom visit, so that pretty well shut me up
