Some time today I appear to have lost a filling. I have no idea when, where, or how. This time it's a rather large one, and there seems to be a bit of tooth rot underneath (which probably partially explains the "how" at least). So of course I've left a message on my dentist's "dental emergency" line. It would of course be completely unsurprising if I can't get it taken care of tomorrow, although he's normally open on Saturday so hopefully that will work.

All I know is when I ate some soup for dinner (because I have that cruddy cold that's been going around) it hurt like a mother, and later when I had some tea it was worse, so I looked in the mirror and, yep, big gap where a bunch of enamel and/or filling used to be.

At least I still have the ibuprofen that I eventually got after last time (which is good because the grocery store is already closed for Christmas). Sigh.

Between having this horrible cold/cough and this new dental issue, I am having a pretty crappy holiday so far.
