Pain, pain go away...

It's been raining for what feels like months, and my wisdom tooth has been hurting for what seems like years. But somehow, the two are inextricably linked. I'm near to certain that they came on at the same time.

So, my question is this: if the rain stops, will my wisdom tooth stop hurting? Additionally, if the pain stops, will it stop raining?

On to my next point - pain prevention. Much like an umbrella, ibuprofen stops the pain/rain from hurting/wetting me, but only temporarily. There's always a little bit of rain/pain that gets through the ibuprofen/umbrella, and there's nothing to be done about it.

So as I sit here in pain, barely able to open my mouth to take a sip of coffee, I wonder; do I control nature, or does it control me?
