THE TOOTH FAIRY AIN'T SO NICE
My dentist recommended to have my third molars extracted since a couple of years ago. I never went. I was way too scared. Both the lower teeth are impacted, but the upper ones need to be removed too to align my teeth. After a few feeble attempts, and two boyfriends later, I finally decided to go ahead and do it. Damn it, my gums get swollen probably every month or so, and I'm really running out of excuses not to do it.
So today, I finally did it! The upper and lower right wisdom teeth, at least. And OMG. It was one of the most unpleasant experiences ever. The impacted tooth was located way at the back of the nerves. I could feel the pressure on my mouth and though I felt no pain, I knew they were cutting my gums, drilling on it to extract the root that was broken off, and stitching it. I did not have to courage to bring home the blasted tooth. The tooth fairy ain't so nice no more.
I'm glad it's over, though. I'm finally striking out things I need to get done but never really tried hard to do them just because they were not urgent. Among such list is taking GMAT,and TOEFL, my before-30 list...
But I digress. I'm glad I partied hard last night because today was so horrible. All I ate the whole day was a couple of Ritz crackers, a small cup of soup. I tried to eat noodles but I could hard open my mouth. I had to stay home most of the today, but it's ok. I got to watch two of my TV addictions: Trading Spaces and While You Were Out in the TLC channel. Someone is getting domesticated.. :D
