My wisdom teeth are no more.
I had to be at the hospital at 7am, and ended up waiting 5 sodding hours for my turn. I suppose, at least by then, any nerves I did have (I'm not particularly prone to prolonged nerves - or indeed excitement, which is somethimes a good thing and sometimes bad) had given way to complete and utter boredom.
The local they gave my mouth is starting to wear off - annoyingly enough, from back to front. My jaw is starting to ache, but my tongue and my bottom lip are still rather numb. -_-
Ugh.
At least I have full cream ice-cream. And jelly!

Swish with warm salt water twice a day (for infection). Jello and Broth work too.
Isn't that numbness crazy!?! Drove me nuts!
Hope you are feeling better!

Getting better, though! mmm icecream
