Give it a go

Went to the dentist this morning... lying in the chair, wishing I were in bed instead, it all of a sudden hit me hard - I don't want to be there. Actually, I really just didn't want to open my mouth, because I was tired. I contemplated getting up out of the chair and saying I forgot something I had to do and just leave... but I didn't. and now it's over and my teeth feel nice and clean. It was just weird what an overwhelming feeling it was... and it happened the last time I went. I hate more than anything else that I feel like I'm choking on my own saliva for 20 minutes or however long it takes... it's just unpleasant. It made me wish that I did have some control over my bodily functions - just have my brain say, "No need for that much saliva right now."

On the same note, it would also be cool if my brain could say, "It's really not cold enough for you to die, so no need for you to report to me, Cold Sensing Nerves." Imagine how weird it would be? Perhaps it would make us appreciate life a lot less, and that would be sad....
