    Yup. Mayhem and hopefully Desert Uprising comes back late summer. For a couple years in a row they added a second day to Uproar and turned into a 2 day festival in AZ. They didn't do it last year but I have hopes it comes back as it was a blast.

    Have you traveled to another country to attend a festival?

    Nope, I don't really enjoy festivals.

    Do you enjoy attending music festivals?

    Nope. Not my thing, although I'll be at one Sunday. A bluegrass festival at that. Two things I don't particularly care for.

    Do you like bluegrass?

    I wasn't aware grass came in different colors.

    Should I blow off my dentist appointment and take a nap instead?

    Sure...why not?

    Are you going to do it?

    No. I gave myself 5 minutes to lay down. My appointment is in 48 minutes. BOOOOOOOO I don't want to mess this up as it's the only dentist who takes my insurance.

    Do you hate the dentist?

    Only until he gives me nitrous.

    Do you ask for nitrous?

    I don't know what it is

    What is nitrous?

    Nitrous oxide, aka "laughing gas." It's what the dentist gives you to knock your ass out while they drill holes in your mandible. Also, college kids inhale balloon-fulls of it to get high.

    Have you ever inhaled helium to make your voice sound funny?

    Yes! That's fun as hell!

    I thought nitrous oxide is what they put in cars? Nos? Vroom Vroom.
    Is it legal in N.Y.? I've been to like 10 different dentists and never got offered. I thought it was only in movies.

    Official question: can one of you teleport over here and hold my hand? I'm scared.

    Yes. I'll be there shortly.

    Is this just a routine check-up?

    First time I been to the dentist in years. Six cavities, a root canal, and one likely extraction. During the cleaning I evicted the needle thing out of my mouth twice and it hurted so bad there was a couple tears that escaped from my eye holes despite my best efforts to stop them. There were a couple yelps whimpers screams involved too. No one offered me nitrous.

    Will you come hold my hand next week when I get a couple cavities filled?

    Yowsza! That's quite a bit of dental work. I will hold your hand next week.

    Do you get a choice of what music to listen to while at the dentist?

    There was no music. I might ask if I can have headphones when he does the cavities. At least in one ear.

    Will you make me a soothing playlist?

    Cavities and root canals are usually done with local anesthesia (commonly a lidocaine injection). If you're afraid of needles (especially the ones used for dental injections) ask for a topical anesthetic at first. This is usually just benzocaine on a cotton swab and it helps numb the surface so you don't feel the needle as much when they inject you.
    Surprised they didn't gas you for the extraction, though. They usually fully sedate you for those.

    Yes. It shall be loaded with some Pantera, Slipknot, Hatebreed, Lamb of God and many more. It is very soothing.

    Is no music at the dentist better than the elevator music they normally play?

    My last dentist happily gave me nitrous when I had a filling replaced. He even gave me lidocaine. They had to turn it down because I got the non-stop giggles.
    New dentist uses the fancy schmancy sonic cleaner, so no pokey scraping tools.

    I agree you should have been given something if you got extractions.
