I got two of my teeth extracted today. One from each side. It wouldn’t have been that bad if the numbing stayed working on one side while they worked on the other. I raised my hand like they told me to if I had any discomfort but I still had to wait 40 mins. since they were in the middle of an important process. I squirmed in pain every single minute and in fear of how much more it’ll hurt as a second passed by and the numbing working less and less. But the picture mail I got a few mins. prior from Jay of him and Ariana helped me ease the pain. Not a lot but just a little. 😉 Now I look like either an old lady with no teeth or a chipmunk while I chew my food with my front teeth. At least the numbing went away, my face looked all train-wrecked like a train ran only the half side of my face and everytime I passed by the mirror, I couldn’t help but to bust out laughing at my own face and then laugh even harder when I saw my retarded crooked smile.
And I didn’t eat dinner with my family today like we usually do every night. Instead, I asked for permission from Jay to leave the table(I felt like a little girl asking her daddy) and I took my food upstairs and finished it while watching t.v. I just needed to do something little just for me and not worry about taking care of two little ones for just a little bit. (because just prior, my two lovely kids raided the whole kitchen and managed to rearrange all my tupperware, spices, utensils into random places, fought with each other and made each other cry many many times, Adi took off her pants and her diaper and peed in a plastic container but missed most of it, clinged onto my legs as they cried wanting to be held but I couldn’t hold any of them so to be fair, Adalie throwing her 2 yr. old tantrums and rolling on the floor and screaming while Ana did her matrix back-bends when she’s mad- all while I cooked dinner.) This is our daily ritual but today with me all drugged up and fatiqued from the surgery, I didn’t have as much patience.
And after some me-time, I felt much better. And some Jay-time, tapioca pudding, and cheesecake will do me some good right now. So adios~
