Dentist appointment becomes a gateway
Dash went to the dentist today. He was scared of the drill and so the dentist gave him nitrous.
He liked it so much he said he wanted to take it home. We all laughed, haha so funny, a kid has never said that before but inside it made me very nervous. It’s a little too easy to imagine him stealing Redi-Whip from Quickcheck to do whippits when he hits Montclair High.
After the gas wore off they gave him a token to get a present out of a gumball machine. He got a blonde mustache.
The visit felt a bit too prophetic for a drizzly Monday.

too funny. my kid just got nitrious at the dentist too. inspired me to write a post (in my head) “i now know how my daughters first drunk phone call will play out when she is fifteen.”

I love that the first thing you think of is referencing Dazed and Confused.
