In two hours I get picked up and taken to the hospital. A few hours after that, I'll be taken into surgery. Apparently only an hour later, I'll be minus four wisdom teeth.
I am SO HUNGRY. And that's even with the luck of having a small breakfast, since I'm last on the list and only going in after 5pm...!
I went to the optometrist this morning to finally get my script updated and some new frames. I like them, they are by Guess, and are a kind of red colour. At first I thought it was a little too pink but I really liked the frame design and went with them anyway. Photo will come next week when I've picked them up.
After the optometrist I went and bought food. Jelly (jello), custard, yoghurt, apple puree, and stuff I can mash - avocado, potato and butternut pumpkin, for after the worst has passed and I need something a bit more substantial. My mum is driving down this afternoon to pick me up and bring my home... she'll stay with me until Sunday. She's bringing special South African porridge with her, yum :D
My stomach is grumbling. And I'm thirsty. Nil by mouth sucks. But I know what is worse...bowel prep. Urg. Glad I'm not going to have to go through that again anytime soon.
I'm going to go read through my booklet about getting wisdom teeth out, get a bag ready to take with me, take some rubbish out and then read my book until my ride to the hospital arrives. One of my church friends who works near me has kindly agreed to take me to the hospital, since I can't exactly drive myself and leave the car there for 3 days :p
Oh, and it is cold. Brrrr.
