Feeling a little less wise today!

Even though my face feels three times its normal size, like something out of a cartoon, the mirror says it looks the same as it always does. The evil wisdom tooth that I have had problems with for the past 5 years is GONE. It wasn't that bad. I've got pain meds and plenty of care instructions. So now all I have left is the two bottom ones, which I will have to "save up" to have surgically removed. Perhaps in January. There's something to look forward to! Usually when I am "saving up" for something, it is actually something I want and will enjoy...not having things surgically removed. Oh well. This is life.
My dentist felt the need to continue to comment about how unusually big my wisdom teeth are. Bigger than most he's seen. Does that mean I am therefore, wiser than most?!?!? Ha, probably NOT! For such a tiny mouth (as he calls it) having huge wisdom teeth doesn't sound like much fun for the removal process. Well, I always knew I was extra special. I just didn't know in quite how many different ways!

haha! i like the pic of the teeth and the one little tooth looking like he's going to miss the heck out of the tooth being pulled! tee hee!

my dentist told me when i got braces when i was a teenager that i didn't have any wisdom teeth and then later when i went to have my teeth cleaned when i was 30, that dentist said "oh dear, are these wisdom teeth causing you pain?" Huh? i guess the whole addage that we gain wisdom as we grow older is true!! *gigglesnort*

love ya!
