Good luck with the procedure. My experience is that, when a root canal is called for, it is a blessing to have done.

Is that “Things we’d rather do than drive to EIU to see Rich speak” for $500? Anyone? No One? Well, I’ll be here all week folks. Don’t forget to tip.

Enjoy the pain pills, Rich, but not too much.

Let’s leave some crazy comments here so that when Rich checks it when high on meds we get hilarious results.

I was (abusing myself by) reading yesterday’s column by Kristen McQueary. She contained this little nugget in there: “…state Sen. Martin Sandoval, a Madigan ally with clouted connections to ComEd.” To my knowledge, Madigan and Sandoval did not get along, but you all know better than I if this is the case or not.

Worry not, @McQuearyKristen no longer identifies at the … @StatehouseChick.
Must’ve got tired of trolling herself… like with that quote you grabbed.

Guess you’re gonna get to the root of the issue today.
I’ll see myself out.

Here’s hoping you’re pain-free without meds; Oscar needs you unimpaired for walkies.

Root canals are never fun, but you feel so much better when it’s over. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

“Root canals are never fun”
That’s why the pain narcotics are prescribed, you’ll be too high to care.

Go Illini—Do they make a bowl game? How many games does the Bball team win?
