Well, at least if *FEELS* like a punch in the face. My lips, chin, and half of my tongue feel as if they are all twice normal size, and very, very tingly! On top of that, I am starving, but for fear of eating parts of mouth, I figure I\'d better wait until the feeling has completely returned.

It wasn\'t as painful as I remember, but then again, the last time a dentist acutally had to give me novocaine was back in sixth grade, and back then I go tot have strawberry \"flavored\" laughing gas. I barely felt the first needle, and the second and third were just sort of annoying. Not as annoying as the numbness that is keeping me from hitting the new burger joint right down the street.

Guess this\'ll teach me to floss...
