boootch....

. Take the What Pulp Fiction Character Are You? quiz.

I will survive!

So.... Wisdom tooth extraction was easy! Now, we wait for the pain to start. Hopefully it doesn't. Oh, and Smurfchick, I got to keep my teeth! Woohoo!

So, anyway, going out to get Vicodin soon. I'll see if I need it. I just munched (choked on?) some Advil, and we'll see what those do first. Think happy pain-free thoughts for me. :)

So much blood....

Doctor says it might bleed more when the Novocaine wears off. I'm almost painting the house here.... ech. I'm trying the teabag approach he recommended. This is almost scary, though. If I was afraid of blood, I'd be very very afraid right now.

Wisdom tooth extraction procedure

I've just GOT to post this. I'll (CUT) it here, so those of you squeamish won't catch anything that's make you retch. Read this only if you don't mind hearing my experiences having four of my teeth yanked out. :)
( This way lies blood... )

So, now it's 8 hours later. I went through a nice bleeding phase when the Novocaine wore off (blood vessels open, GOOSH) and it seems to have stopped again. Whee. No pain yet, and no pain medication in... six hours. I'm gonna take a vicodin with some yogurt just to be safe, but maybe tomorrow I'll see if I can do without.

That's it. Smurfchick, you can have a tooth for your necklace. I'll get one to you with my wife when she comes for Ani. :)

Game over. WINNER: Scirocco
