And it was really big, chipped, and ugly.

It all happened last night when I was at church. We were in a new building that was on the side of a hill. It was a cabin we were renting for a retreat weekend. Suddenly the building began to collapse on one side because the stilts holding it up could not bear the weight of the building. While everyone was screaming in fear, I was screaming with excitement.

YAY THIS IS GONNA BE AWESOME!!!

As the building collapsed on one side the brick wall fell out. One of the bricks nailed me in the mouth and I lost one of my K9 teeth. I looked at it closely. It was a lot larger than I thought it would be. In fact it looked more like a molar. I knew the dentists had wanted to file it down when I was a kid because they gave me an overbite, but this was ridiculous. I looked at the tooth in continued wonder as I realized there were two cavities on this tooth. I was really surprised to see this because I’m usually very careful to brush and floss and rinse with Listerine every morning.

Eventually the thought struck me that I should probably go find my mom in the rubble. But man was I bummed that I had cavities on that stupid tooth.
