NPO

I was at the dentist today and had an unlikely conversation with her.....

Dentist: Do you exercise or diet? You are very thin. (no hello, just sits down and opens with this.)

Rowdy: Yeah, I do. I exercise about 8 to 10 hours a week and kinda watch what I eat. More like I just try not to eat too much and just eat whatever I want.

Dentist: Oh, what kind of exercise do you do? Gym or what?

Rowdy: Actually mostly in my garage. Calisthenics or riding my bike or going to my martial arts class.

Dentist: You are very thin, like a male model.

Rowdy: Thanks.....

Dentist: Most Americans are very big, too big, but you are like a European in your build. Like many of the men I have seen from there. You are built like a male model. (she is not originally from the US)(full disclosure i ammmmm smaller than the average american male, as i am only 5' 7" and 137lbs)

Rowdy: Hhahaha, now only if I was good looking!

Dentist: People say you loose weight if you smoke, maybe I should start smoking.

Rowdy: Uh, no. You should not do that, or meth either.

Dentist: Oh, I have had many patients who have done that substance and their teeth are all gone.

I have to keep talking to you because if I am done to quick you will think I am making easy money off of you.

Rowdy: No really, it is ok. If I am out of here in 2 minutes that is fine. All you are doing is making me nervous by keeping me here.

Dentist: So what kind of food do you like?

Rowdy: Pizza, hamburgers and mexican. Sushi to. But not steak really. Though I do love french dip sandwiches.

Dentist: What is that?

Rowdy: I wish I had metal teeth shaped like shark teeth...

Dentist: I know a dental tech in San Fran who had all his teeth pulled and made metal dentures. When he put them in they were too heavy to stay.

Rowdy: Titanium.

Dentist: One time a guy named Wolf asked me out. I said, who is this wolf? He had given his incisors crowns to look like wolf fangs and changed his name to Wolf and he was in a band. Like I would ever go out with that. Yeah right!

So yeah, you now get an idea of what my 45 minutes at the dentist was like today.....
