One of the reasons I put off getting my wisdom teeth out for so long was because I was afraid of the cost. We’re trying to get out of debt and when Steve had his taken out early in our marriage it really got that ball rolling towards debt. However, when all things were said and done with mine, thanks to health insurance and the dental that we have now that we didn’t have then, we only had to write a check for $124!

After watching House all the time, I would have thought that Vicodin might give me a good trip but I am not so lucky. I’m still in pain. Bah. My lower jaw is just killing me. Yup, I got my wisdom teeth out this morning. Finally. Yes, I know. I’ve been putting this off for years. And like I told the doctor when I went in, I don’t know why I was so nervous. I’ve been through childbirth for crying out loud. I knew what was going to happen, I knew I had no reason to worry but I couldn’t help it for some reason.
Well, now it’s over. Except for the healing process, of course. I just hope it’s a speedy process. I have many projects I have to get done, some by this Sunday. I don’t feel like just sleeping, I can’t fall asleep right now, but I don’t feel like doing anything of any value, either. I’m just sitting here playing Packrat and thinking about switching over to The Sims 2.

Ugh. Every time I sit down to try and write something, my mind goes utterly blank. I’m not even all up in my photo uploading either. It doesn’t help either, that my sinuses are flaring up again, turning my head to mush. So, uh, what’s new?
– Elijah’s going on week 3 or so with tonsils the size of Texas. He’s been to the doctor twice for them. He got his usual antibiotics the first time but stronger ones later. He goes in for follow-up again on Friday and I can tell you what’s gonna happen. They’re gonna schedule us for an appointment with the ENT (ear, nose, throat doctor) and he’s going to end up getting his tonsils out. He says his throat doesn’t hurt but he also has a hacking cough (but then again, so do I). Poor kid. First his ankyloglossia, that tooth, and now his tonsils in less than a year’s time.

Gah, my tooth hurts. Or rather, the gums around my bottom left wisdom tooth that is trying once again to come through, but there is no room. :-x So therefore the whole left side of my face hurts…
It’s bothered me once since I last posted about it.
But if the stuff happening with S’s job does indeed happen, we could end up with dental insurance and that would be awesome.
So I wait…. and until then I continue to pop the Ibuprophens.
Ouch. :ouchie:
When Mom and I went to see Cats, I had been going through her purse for something, and I pulled out this Pampered Chef cheese knife she had in there. I said, “What the heck are you trying to do? Get us arrested?” She laughed and said that that had been in there from some picnic they went on the other day and she kept forgetting about it. And her attitude was, “It can’t hurt anyone anyway.” But you know how they are these days. I knew that they checked coolers at the Muny, but couldn’t remember if they checked purses or not. So we took it out and left it in her glove box.
So yesterday, I had a chance to go see George W. Bush, like I did four years ago… Do you see where I am going with this yet? Anyway, mom called on such short notice that I didn’t feel I could get ready in time to go, and I also didn’t know what I would do with Elijah. So I turned her down. She seemed a bit upset about it because she’d told George she’d take four tickets, and it looked like only she and G were going to be able to go.
Anyway, today she calls me and tells me that by the time they got there, they were about to close the gates (once they close the doors, no one else gets in) and so there were a lot of people running to get in.
The Secret Service busted my mom. Yes, they did. They confiscated her cheese knife, and now she has to buy another one. lol
I was like, “Do I have to follow you around everywhere and take that thing out of your purse?” And she’s all, “I use it all the time, I took it to [my uncle's] the other day because of the dish I brought,” etc.
My mom, busted by the Secret Service.
Now that’s funny.
