Back from the Dead
Posted by Neil Brimelow | Filed under Screenwriting
Oh, boy, what fun it’s been for the past two weeks. I thought I was dying, but it turns out it was just a bad tooth! There was no pain, as it was a root canal gone bad, but the symptoms sure felt like death, or death-like. I don’t know what was worse, the antibiotics, or the bad tooth. The antibiotics gave me unstoppable heartburn. NOTHING could stop the heartburn, and I never get heartburn.
The funny thing is that the tooth was otherwise fine, no decay. I had what was called root resorption. Because of unknown circumstances, sometimes the body attacks a root canal(ed) tooth as a foreign entity. Root resorption can also happen to otherwise healthy teeth, from what I understand, but that is rare.
Well, the tooth problem is fixed, and I am off the antibiotics and I am feeling 9000 times better and am going to finish this darn screenplay as soon as possible. I gotta get onto the next projects.
