Tonight I'm leaving with my parents to go to a three-day bridge tournament in Gatlinburg (TN--4 hours or so away). I kind of wish I hadn't said I would go, because I'm way nervous about it. I always get anxious about playing with new partners, and now I'm committed for three days of it! I will be playing with a lady from the bridge club named Michelle, who reminds me a lot of my mom's college friend Terri Kidd. She's nice enough, but I'm nervous since we've never played together before. Mom and Dad are going to be playing swiss teams on Friday and Saturday with their friends Larry and Mildred, who we are staying with. On Sunday they're going to play swiss teams with Michelle and me. I hope Michelle is up for being drafted into our clique, as it were.
The swelling in my jaw is finally going down. I'm going to get the teeth taken out on Monday, but I have to have an IV for the sedation stuff. I don't do very well with needles. I'm going to cry like a baby for sure.
