Leave the Wisdom, take the Teeth.

Blogging is hard. It's hard because you have to make yourself do it. You have to create it as a habit. I'm working on it becoming a habit. Bear with me.

So this week I was really bad because I promised that I would write about my wisdom teeth removal but that was on Monday and it's almost Sunday.

Tonight I'm watching Avatar with my mom, step dad, and my moms friend Cara. I've decided since I've seen it before I will try my hand at multitasking and post something.

So Monday I got my 4 wisdom teeth removed. It hurt like hell and it still does. The whole process was quick and easy. I went in and they put me under within 10 minutes and I awoke 45 minutes later, mouth full of cotton, can't feel my face, totally David after the Dentist. I started to cry a little because I was so confused about why all the nurses looked at me so funny. I swear it was like I spilled my guts to these people while I was asleep. Like I told them I peed the bed till I was 12 or that I thought the Doctor was cute or something horrendously embarrassing like that.

After I left and went home I felt totally dazed and confused. I tried watching TV but I couldn't hold my attention and I couldn't sleep and I was just miserable.
Then the numbing went away and I was in pain AND miserable. I couldn't talk because of the gauze and so I had to text message my Dad for pain medication. Thank God for technology.

After I was drugged up and the bleeding eventually stopped, which I thought wouldn't, I settled in and started enjoying the pampering. I watched lots of Dr.Who and Charade, with Audrey Hepburn and Cary Grant. Then my mom came over after work and I swear she made me the best damn mashed potatoes I've ever tasted. They were like made with magic or something. The rest of the day was unexciting and sleeping was a mission.

Tuesday was super boring. I felt lots better and now was just bored because I couldn't go anywhere. I started a puzzle and watched a lot of stupid stuff on TV. My dad wanted to make some goody baskets for his girls softball teams party and I ran with it. I let my creativity thumb run wild. I think they turned out pretty cute! Krista came over later that night and we watched one of my favorite movies, Like Water for Chocolate. She's a nice person.

Wednesday-Friday I worked. It was stressful because a lot of corporate people were there and it was one of those situations where you just shut up and do whatever they say. On Thursday I felt like I was sexually assaulting this mannequin because I had to carry it all around the store so the president and posy could get an idea. What a bore...

Friday after work I went to Krista's house because her family was having a party for her sister Erin's High School graduation. Congrats Erin!!
So we end up playing Pictionary with a bunch of her cousins and her friend Brandy. Brandy, Krista, Krista's cousins Simone and Aliya (I think), and I were on a team. We sucked really bad. Krista was pretty good but I was atrocious. For example instead of drawing someone turning + a table, I would draw an actual turntable. I just didn't get the concept of helping people guess, I guess. So we started cheating. At first we didn't make it subtle enough but soon no one could tell if we were, it was so much fun. I had a great time.

Today I did nothing awesome. I watched SpongeBob and read 100 pages of The Time Travelers Wife. It is so good. I recommend it.

My jaw hurts so bad. Its like this unbearable throbbing pain. I took some meds but god it felt like forever for it to kick in. Now without further ado I present to you the promised picture of my surgery...

This is taken probably 10 minutes after I woke up. Something totally creepy about this picture is that before my surgery that sweatshirt was off. When I woke up, it was on. I would have loved to see how many nurses it takes to put a sweatshirt on a sleeping 20 year old.

Avatar is almost over so I'm going to go brush my teeth and pour myself into my reading. I hope everyone had a good week! Talk to you soon!
