So I had my wisdom teeth out today...

And I have to say: not nearly as traumatic as I've been expecting. I had the surgery around 7:30 this morning (all four teeth done) and have spent most of the day resting in bed and eating yogurts. I'm a bit light-headed from the combo of hydrocodone, ibuprofen and antibiotics, but so far, so good.

I'm told Sunday will probably suck, though.

Yeah when all the stuff starts to wear out in a few days, then it gets bad. >_>

When I woke up this afternoon, I had three texts about teeth. One was a photo of your horribly wrapped visage, the other two were from Sku who has developed painful wisdom teeth overnight and needs to see a dentist ASAP.

Holy crap, is she okay?

I felt the same way when I had mine out through the entire experience. Everybody talks about it like it's this huge painful ordeal. Aside from the nuisance of not being able to eat solid food for awhile, it didn't phase me. I think I only took one of the pain pills.

What will really make you sick is the lack of solid foods. You get so hungry!

But other than that, it's generally not so bad.
