Something's missing...

Oh Yeah - My Teeth!!

I got my wisdom teeth pulled out today. you know, it wasn't that bad - the actual pulling them out of my head - the worse part was actually getting the shot that would make me not feel any pain. That hurt a lot. "A lot" is 2 words, not one. Other than that, the worst of it was the cracking noise.

I was shaking terribly though, and I think that i permanently stained the pits of my favorite white shirt b/c i was sweating so bad. (it says "bean town lover" on it, an unbirthday present from Jillie). The doctor kept having to remind me to breath, anyone could tell I was nervous.

In the end it was kinda sad to look over at the tray and just see my teeth sitting there, all sad, seperated, alone, (and bloodied). I wonder what they're going to do with them? Maybe they use them to make some one elses dentures? I should have put a tracking device on one of them. It might end up in some dumpster in Brazil. At least my tooth will get to see the world.

Johnny's here to baby and take care of me too! I'm kinda milking it- he's out running errands for me at the moment. :p He's been marvelous in all this though- It's amazing that he still wants to even look at me, no less kiss me- despite the fact that my face looks like I was a recent victim of a stroke. I just wish he'd stop trying to get me to talk to him, my mouth is stuffed with gauze, i look like a chipmunk, and it's difficult to keep myself from drooling as it is without having to open my mouth.

So yeah, not that bad, hardly painful, and once Johnny get's back with my prescription of Vicodin, well, I bet everything will be alright.

It's been a while since I've written anything - but things are happening and so what better time to up-date than now.

First thing happening: My grandma is here! That's always been fun in the past - i think that some of my family might be waiting for a fun up-date with her as the topic - unfortunately, nothing really all that great has happened except we had all just gotten a cold when she came and now she has a terrible cough too! "Let's get grandma sick!" Oh JOY!!! - naturally, we feel awful.
My mom told me to make my grandma something to help relax her before bed - and though grandma seemed willing when i suggested a shot of brandy my mom decided that Tea might be a better choice. Buzz Kill.

Second thing happening: Johnny comes for a week long visit tomorrow! And those of you who are familiar with know how awfully fond of him I am. I have been working all summer on making a list of fun things to do when he gets here. They're saved in the drafts of my cell phone. However, there's just one that that's going to get in the way of our super fun week - which leads to ...

Happening #3: I'M GETTING MY WISDOM TEETH PULLED OUT!!! Ecstasy! This coming Tuesday. The best part is that they've decided to keep me awake and conscious for the whole tortuous process -the excitement is just whelming inside me. I'm tempted to borrow my brother's iphone and attempt to keep a live, running blog of the whole thing. Perhaps that will minimize the agony. I hated getting just a part of my mouth numbed when i got a filling last month - i'm imagining that a whole numbed mouth will have me in a pretty pissy attitude. There is one saving grace from all this wich is...

Happenin' thing #4: I went out late last night to the local Meijer to by Coraline; in 3D!! It came with 4, count 'em, 4 3D glasses! That's what I plan on doing while waiting for the feeling to come back in my face.

So, as you can see - many things happening...at least 4 anyways. I'll try to stay up-dated, hopefully they'll be something to tell.
