  Thirteen Things That REALLY Happened After My Dentist Appointment 1.  I've found out that the appointment actually took closer to an hour and a half, but they had told Jesse (when I went back) they thought it should only be 45 minutes.  THAT'S where my story about 45 minutes came from.  As we left the office after my appointment, Jesse said I skipped off down the hall despite his calling, "Cher' wait, I'll help you."  He said he had the girls go ahead and hold doors, but instead of me letting everyone help, I knocked them out of the way and went down the outside steps to the parking lot without assistance (despite his desperate pleas to stop) saying flippantly to my family, "Oh, I can do this - really!"  I have a distinct recollection of getting into the glass elevator and thinking, "I need to be VERY careful here so I don't go through the glass and fall 3 stories!" 2.  We stopped on the way home from the appointment to wash the Suburban.  I have NO recollection of going to a car wash except for Jesse asking me if I minded.  I suppose I said, "Noooo!  Not at allllll!  Go ahead!"  I can only guess! 3.  At some point we ran into a couple we met at a church we attended before we were married.  I remember Jesse talking loud and shaking my arm saying, "Honey, look!"  I saw a VERY pretty girl in a vehicle (couldn't tell you if it was a full size truck or compact car!) smiling at me and waving.  He said, "It's Chris & Crystal!"  I said, "Ohhhhhhhhhhh!  Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii Cyrstal!" and grinned like a Cheshire cat!  I also remember hearing Jesse explain I had just come from the dentist's office and was drugged up. (rolling my eyes) 4.  After arriving home, Jesse said he found me aimlessly wandering around the house and told me to go to bed and I meekly said, "Okay."  Too bad I wasn't as obedient as I wove a jagged, path from the dentist's office to the parking lot! 5.  I undressed (as I told everyone yesterday) and DID put everything in my closet - EXCEPT my shoes.  They were lined up (heel to heel, military style) on the edge of the bathtub! (scratching my head????)  The shoes from the day before were lined up as equally neat IN the closet, on the floor. (huh?) 6.  I remember turning on the bedroom TV thinking I might catch the local news.  Jesse said he checked me 2 minutes later and I was snoring. 7.  Jesse left to pick up Luci and I never knew they were gone; nor did I hear the 3 noisy girls come back home. 8.  I woke up around 7:30pm and was sure it was close to midnight, or at least 10pm.  I saw my bathroom clock (a wind-up style) and was sure it had stopped. 9.  Jesse was in the garage and came in to find me scrounging in the refrigerator and I told him I needed something to eat (remember my earlier fast BEFORE the appointment?). 10.  Jesse said he told me to get out of the refrigerator (he said I was literally IN the refrigerator - head first) because he had bought Sonic burgers.  To which I replied, "Ohhhhhhhhhh Goooooooood!!!!!!  You bought Sonnnnnnnnn-ic burrrrrrrr-gers?????"  (Sonic burgers are plain old fast food burgers.  NOTHING to purrrrrrrr about!) 11.  Jesse sent me back to bed and said he'd heat up the burger and bring it to me in the bedroom.  He said I wove a path back to the bedroom almost hitting every piece of furniture and door frame on the way. 12.  I went to my closet to take my night time pills (vitamins, bcp, etc.) and got back in bed awaiting the esteemed Sonic burger.  I think it took two hours before he woke me up and said, "Here it is." LOL 13.  I remember eating (without seeing or focusing) in bed and picking bun crumbs and pieces of lettuce off of my chest, nightgown and the sheets.  I remember throwing them in the wastebasket under my nightstand.  Actually, that's not exactly what happened.  Yesterday, I found crumbs, lettuce and a piece of tomato on the floor on the throw rug by the side of the bed!  I'm surprised the dog didn't find it first!
