So. I got my wisdom teeth out yesterday. Really wasn't bad at all. I mean, my mouth kinda hurts, but it isn't as bad as braces so we'll say it's not that bad.
The weirdest thing was the mouth paralysis. Apparently, they did a really good job with the Novocaine before I woke up, and they actually hit the nerve on one side of my mouth (which is what they're aiming for). So one side was completely numb, and they other side was completely....paralyzed. It was weird. Of course, as soon as my mom got off the phone with the dentist to make sure that this was just the Novocaine and nothing to be worried about, I could twitch the corner of my mouth. So I did that for like twenty minutes.
I've eaten a ton of ice cream (thanks to my fabulous Mama and Anna/Jena/Miranda), had lots of mashed potatoes (thank you Daddy), named a gnome (thank you William), and slept on the couch with a teddy bear (thank you Lou).
Probably the worst part is that my usual diet of meat, coffee, and peanut butter is now Jello, ice cream, and mashed potatoes.
But really, that isn't that bad.
Oh, except for the part where I still can't feel half my lip. That's a little strange.
