elfsThis morning I had the joy and bliss of going to the dentists' office for the first of two operations to install a crown on my #2 molar. I decided this time to bring my iPod. About two-thirds of the way through the procedure, the nurse said, "What are you rocking out to there?"
"Iron Maiden. I, uh, I guess it's probably a bad idea to be listening to a band named after an instrument of torture right about now, huh?"
"Well, don't you have anything else on there?"
"Sure. Rock, jazz, hip-hop, classical, newage. I could even listen to my Japanese lessons while I'm here, but I doubt I'd remember them after this, don't you?"
"Of course you'd remember them," she said. "You'd have them drilled into you!"
