dentistry and chromatic normalcy

i HATE novocaine! argh. got a tooth filled this morning; will be heading back to maryland in an hour or so, and this *should* wear off by breezewood so i can have my mid-journey coffee break without drooling everywhere, but ... ehhg

i had to have a big dose too; the first syringe made my tongue numb but not my teeth.

um, colors back to normal; that's all.
