The truth is, I'm in a surprising and worrisome amount of pain for this being four days after they did the packing-in of the root canal business, and if I didn't have my steady diet of leftover painkillers, I'd be in a bad way. I'm a little concerned, and not too thrilled to be taking so many pills. Admittedly, I'm still a paranoid pussy about it, so "so many pills" is about half a vicodin 3 or maybe 4 times a day... but that's enough to make me worry, considering they deemed this only ibuprofen-worthy and here I am Saturday morning (well, Friday night by my night-owl standards) and still in pain.

On the plus side, if this can have a plus side, The Office Season 2 is surprisingly strong, at least as strong as Season 4. Maybe stronger. I'd love to say more about it, but it's 5:30 in the morning and my tooth is killing me. Suffice it to say it's character-driven, bittersweet more often than awkward (a plus), and far exceeds my expectations. I think I like it more than Arrested Development so far, which I find fun as hell but ultimately just clever; The Office feels a little more than just clever. In fact, it's not even that clever. It's just kind of good.

Fuck, this hurts.

The tooth I mean, not the admitting a sitcom isn't terrible. The former distracts from the pain of the latter.
