right now, i am in terrible need of things to keep my mind off the pain in the right side of my mouth. (yes, i did summon the courage in the end - and fought a fever and flu just so that i can keep to my plans.)
the wisdom tooth surgical extraction (my second extraction in five days) is just like what everyone's been saying, extremely excruciating to the bone. but fortunately, its still not the worst pain i've been through (my 2nd degree burns back in my jc days was by far the worst as far as i can remember). but stilllllll, it has to be one of the most frightening procedures i've been through in my sheltered life. imagine having incisions in your gum proceeding the drilling of the tooth - all mentioned briefly by the dentist in a matter-of-fact tone as if it was a delightful recipe to be easily accomplished! also, i am displeased to announce that i have the first stitches ever - three of them! i almost passed out from the sight of them when i shone a touchlight into my stiffen mouth to peek at them.
this is absolutely a nightmare! i need to start getting used to the ache so that i can have a peaceful rest tonight. grrrrrrrrrrr.
