Re: Em's Extremely Extraordinarily Epic Random Banter #91
Well, so far this wisdom tooth thing pretty much sucks.
The surgery went fine; they gave me laughing gas, and since they started that before they stuck the IV in, I was already dizzy enough that the needle (in the back of my hand, since they couldn't find a vein in my arm) didn't make me pass out. I woke up and my mom was there, I couldn't talk because there were cotton balls in my cheeks.....
Everything is kind of vague for about three hours after the surgery. I remember them half-carrying me out the door of the clinic then it skips to being in the car crying (as much as I could with a mouth full of cotton balls) because I felt so awful. I remember my mom getting me out of the car and onto the couch, and I think taking my coat off..and then forcing me to drink a smoothie before she gave me my pills. My entire face was still numb (the last of it has only JUST worn off, four and a half hours later). my jaw and my gums REALLY started hurting, and I ended up taking an extra painkiller plus two ibuprofen. It still hurts but it's more managable.
Mom went out and got me a small frosty at Wendy's about fortyfive minutes ago, but it hurts to open my mouth and get a spoon in so I didn't have much of it. I iced my cheeks for an hour too, and the cold helped a little.
So to summarize: I've learned that I'm very sensitive to anesthesia, very resistant to painkillers, and I feel like crap.
(I know, I'm whining. I apologize.)

Re: Em's Extremely Extraordinarily Epic Random Banter #91
I got my wisdom teeth removed last summer. I remember counting down from 100 after they injected me with the stuff to knock me out. I got to 89 before I could feel my brain losing it. I also remember before the operation they had to wire me in multiple places because I wasn't responding to some type of machine. I think I actually had a good operation. Low pain, the only thing that really was tough was the swelling in my cheek. It makes it hard to talk and eat. I ate a lot of smoothies and yogurts and stuff like that.

I remember my mom invented something called a happy drink. It has no alcohol what-so-ever, its composed of blueberries, vanilla yogurt, ice cream, juice, strawberries, splenda, and whatever else we have in the kitchen, all blended together.

*Hugs*
You have every right to whine, so, no apologies.
Shall I tell my wisdom teeth story?
It won't make her feel any better.
I'll abreviate it then.
I had all four out at once. When I woke up, I was still on the chair, so I got up and went to call my mom. The dentist saw me walk into the lobby and exclaimed, "What are you doing up? I only just finished with you!" They made my go back and lie down. He said if I was still awake in 10 minutes, I could call my mom. 10 minutes later, I called my mom. I went home, took one painkiller, then was back to work the next day.
The drugs, they go right through my system. Painkillers don't even have much effect. Good thing my pain tollerance is high.Avatar by Sneak - The Midnight Son by CeikaNo more a lone wolf, The Midnight Son rides again.Give thanks ye mortals, for he rides on the wings of an angel.Spoiler

Re: Em's Extremely Extraordinarily Epic Random Banter #91
I had three wisdom teeth. The one on the left side of my mouth was coming in cleanly, and probably didn't need to be removed. The two on my right were not, and needed to be cut out. On top of the general anesthetic, they gave me local anesthetic on the right side only. And the local anesthetic stuck for several hours after having the teeth pulled. During that time, half my face was numb, which was not exactly the most pleasant experience.
Other than that, I think the pulling was pretty average. Yes, I hurt, but not much beyond the point of annoyance.

Re: Em's Extremely Extraordinarily Epic Random Banter #91
You know what I just realised when reading this thread?
I haven't watched a single film in '07. Not even one, not even from our school. I wasn't in any cinema in the whole year. I feel strange.

Re: Em's Extremely Extraordinarily Epic Random Banter #91
I haven't been to cinema since ... ecch ... I don't know, since I was in New York City in February or March and had nothing better to do. Decided to catch one of those limited release films. Apparently the rest of America is too stupid to enjoy lavish adaptations of Patrick Suskind novels.
I did see a lot of films on DVD, though.

Re: Em's Extremely Extraordinarily Epic Random Banter #91
Wisdom tooth recomendations:
Warm water and salt (Don't swallow,its to clean the sockets).
Bread.
Yogurt.
Soup - something you can slurp.
Non-instant Ramen (As in - the stuff they sell at resturants - If you're in the States, that'll be hard to find. Forgive me being spoiled for living in Japan, right now).

Re: Em's Extremely Extraordinarily Epic Random Banter #91
I had to make a wisdom tooth extraction last year.
The doctor was hot, btw. (27 or something.)
We were talking about the greek Rockwave Festival.
It didn't hurt, but I was pissed off for some days because I couldn't talk and eat.
I have kept my tooth, it's a lot bigger than I thought.

Re: Em's Extremely Extraordinarily Epic Random Banter #91
Ooo... wisdom tooth stories.
I had one that was infected. Went to the dentist after an extraordinarily long break from going (2 years, right after college).
Dentist: *looks in mouth* Oh. Uh... Are... you in any pain? Right now?
Me: No.
Dentist: Really? How about... uh... back here? *poke poke poke*
Me: No.
Dentist: You don't feel that?!
Me: Nope.
Dentist: Oh. Um. Well you have a REALLY bad infection back here by this wisdom tooth coming in funny. It looks like you've lost some bone in your jaw because of it.
Me: Oh?! Funny I don't feel anything.
Got knocked out for the surgery. Only time I've had general anesthetic. Its wiiiieeerrrrd. And yeah, the weeks afterward le suck.

Re: Em's Extremely Extraordinarily Epic Random Banter #91
I had my wisdom teeth out this summer. Made me miss a show I had wanted to go to. :P
...I had 5 wisdom teeth, and one was completely horizontal. It was...rather painful. And anaesthesia or however you spell it makes me talk forever. I'm surprised he could get me to shut up long enough to take the teeth out. :PCobra Avatar by the lovely Miss Nobody.

Re: Em's Extremely Extraordinarily Epic Random Banter #91
Yesterday I solved my Rubik's cube (3x3x3).
And a couple of hours later, a friend came by and destroyed it so he could solve it too.
He never did.
And never will.Last edited by I'm da Rogue!; 2007-12-07 at 10:40 AM.

Re: Em's Extremely Extraordinarily Epic Random Banter #91
Yup. I now look like a chipmunk.
Fortunately, the painkillers are working better today. It only hurts if I move.
I can't chew so I can't eat bread...though I can't say I've been honestly hungry since before the surgery, so I don't mind that much. I've had a couple smoothies since I have to have something in my stomach before I take my pills, but I don't much like the feeling of stuff on my gums.
I asked my mom this morning what the dentist said about the operation (I know they told me after I came out but I have no memory of it whatsoever). She says that my bottom wisdom teeth were EXTREMELY impacted, which explains why my lower gums are so much more swollen than the top ones.

Re: Em's Extremely Extraordinarily Epic Random Banter #91
It was my first cube!
Never tried to solve one before, and it took me 3 days.
(A bit of good luck, a lot of thought)

Re: Em's Extremely Extraordinarily Epic Random Banter #91
I used to be able to solve the cube a year ago. Before sad thoughts invaded my brain and used all that space I needed for the last face of the cube! Now I can't do it anymore. And i used to use the cube to attract girls...
