Teething

[mrissa]

Oh, the indignity. My body has decided to make up for being an early bloomer in every other respect one can imagine by waiting until now to produce my top left wisdom tooth. I had been telling people I only had the bottom two, like my mom. Apparently I have three wisdom teeth. How bizarre. I'm nearly 27. I should not be teething.

You poor thing.

600 mg ibuprofen every six hours. Take with small meal.

And if that doesn't help, call the doctor and explain the situation.

In my head, the doctor says, "What kind of a wimp are you? It's just a little tooth, for heaven's sake."

So this isn't what they say in real life, huh?

They pat your hand, say yes...yes...it hurts...lets take it out.

Um, not any doctor who's been THROUGH it.

Worst three weeks of my life, I tell you.

I still have to have my wisdom teeth out (I've had rather limited dental insurance for the last 6 years), and I'm delaying, because them coming IN was so darned bad.

Let's hope we don't have to live on smoothies together, then.
