loquaciousI feel bad for not having a cheery update recently, but mostly because I haven't had the time.
Having Bear here was a blast, I knew a week wouldn't be long enough. But I will have to write more about that later.
At the moment I'm dealing with an impacted wisdom tooth that is apparently also infected.
When I had my bottom two wisdom teeth taken out I was told the top ones would never need to be removed. But this is the second infection for this particular tooth and the pain has been so bad lately I've been functioning entirely on a mix of pain killers (mainly Tylenol since I have Issues with anything stronger) and vodka. This is not a permanent solution, but at least I finally have a referral and x-rays that should be the first step in me getting oral surgery.
Huzzah.
I've had more oral surgery in my life than most people, I would say. This will mark my 5th major surgery and I'm only 25. I'm not particularly scared of the dentist or of anything they would do to me. But I don't do well with heavy pain meds. In fact, I'm a serious mess with them. But I guess it's better than the mind numbing pain I'm in now.
