My wisdom teeth came out two days ago. I can’t say that I’m not in a lot of pain, but that’s really only because I’m taking Tylenol 3’s and Advil, and they seem to be working wonderfully together. I had to be put under though, which was strange, but I’ll get into that later. First, some back story on the past few months.
The end of 2011 was about as eventful as it could be. I bought new train tickets for July 2012 (California here I come!), although I will say I am a little nervous that I haven’t actually gotten the tickets in the mail yet, but I can always get a hold of those. I got a new bed frame, because my old one was severely lacking in support. I got a Wii! And some fun Zelda games to go with it ;), and I also, um, got a 50″ 3D HD LED (all the Ds) Smart TV, and I don’t know how I feel about it. I love it to pieces, don’t get me wrong, I’m just not used to being able to see the wrinkles on every newscaster. It’s a really beautiful picture though, I finally understand the HD thing. I’m only a little worried about how much power it uses, but that’s not important right now.
Other than all of this spending, nothing was too radical in the end of 2011. But then, the teeth came out. It was a simple procedure, they gave me an IV full of Halcyon, which is a lovely drug that keeps you consciously aware of the procedure (though you’re not in any pain whatsoever), and then as soon as the drug starts to wear off, any memories created while you were under its influence are instantly wiped out! Even now, the last memories I have are having the doctor ask me about my plans for after university, and then all of a sudden I’m in a car and my mouth hurts. I have no idea what happened in between, but apparently I was very coherent!
My mouth hurts though, like I said. I’m taking an anti-swelling thing, some useless T3’s, Penicillin, but god I would kill for something stronger haha. Where’s the black market when I need it? ;)
I’ve even started university again, too. I’m taking a history course, a mircoeconomics course, a sociology course, a course on human origins, and English, of course (how many times did I use course?) The history course is fun, although I do have to say that my prof seems to drag on about last semester’s course a little too much (I don’t mind, but it is getting time to move on I think). I haven’t started English yet, my prof has been out of town, and I have human origins tomorrow morning. The real fun seems to be in mircoeconomics, which I never though I would catch myself saying. I was the only one who got an answer right today, and I feel pretty good about that, given the fact that I have to consciously focus on not drooling on myself. IMAGINE WHAT WILL HAPPEN WHEN I AM NO LONGER AS STONED AS A WITCH. I’ll probably do worse to be honest, don’t ask any questions about that. I’m just glad it’s all settling down, I was a bit worried about my courses.
New New Years Revolution: stop using the word “course.”
There is much more insanity to come in my university classes, I promise, but if I somehow forget, here’s to July 2012 ;).
