teeth, that is…about two weeks ago, i finally got my wisdom teeth pulled…i’ve been avoiding it for a couple years, since it seems to me like an unnecessary way to lose about $1000, but i had one tooth erupt through the gums and get a cavity on it…it started hurting like hell, so i decided to get them ripped out of my skull…
the surgery went well, i liked the anasthesia, it makes you feel sorta strange while it wears off, but still awesome…i totally thought i was awake through the whole thing, because i remember them telling me to open my mouth wider, and then they started just pounding on my tooth with some chisel-like object…then, in recovery, i noticed it had been over an hour, so there was no way i was awake through any of it, haha…
my mom took me home and got me my meds, then nicole came home and baby-sat me for the rest of the day…since i am a little bitch, i took the rest of the week off from work, and just chilled…i watched a lot of movies, ate pudding and soup, and just hung out…the pain wasn’t too bad, it actually hurt worse the next week…then my teeth and jaw just ached for 4-5 days, and now, i am finally over it…i still have to flush out the lower sockets where the teeth were with a little syringe thing, which is awesome, but that really is about it…
so yeah, it really wasn’t a big deal, nothing i would want to do again, but nothing to be afraid of either. go lose some wisdom!!!
