The dentist, but not for reasons you'd think. Novocaine doesn't work very well on me. I went through a process not so long ago of having my mercury fillings removed and replaced with porcelain ones. This meant drilling and the like, which meant Novocaine, which meant I'd have enough pain to make me hit the dentist (some dental pain I love...drilling into my teeth isn't one of them). So my doc tells me to avoid caffeine a couple of days beforehand, since caffeine can negate the effects of Novocaine. I'm not a happy or kind person without my morning coffee, and so I'd forget, have my coffee, show up, and "Whoops, sorry doc, need another shot." (This process took about 4 visits). One morning I showed up, groggy and grumpy, as I obeyed the instructions and went three full days without my sacred java. I lie back in the chair, the dental hygenist tilts the chair back, and I wait. A few minutes later, here comes Mr. Dentist Man, with a HUGE cup of coffee. He sits down next to me and waves it under my nose, saying "Mmmmmmmm.....COFFEEEEEEE......." He does stuff like that to me all the time. Once with his hands working deep inside my mouth, he tells me about working in the yard so much, for the life of him he couldn't get all the dirt out from under his nails. [8D]
