So last night I developed a nasty toothache. Yanno the ones where all you can do is clutch your mouth and howl in agony, because rational thought has left you completely? Even after knocking back an entire bottle of ibuprofen (this is exaggeration, I took one of those 800 mg horse pills) it wouldn't go away. I finally took a second early this morning, so I could at least sleep. It worked alright, but I woke up with half my face swole up like an orangutan. So I had to make an emergency visit to the dentist, where I learned I had a bad abscess. I'm all goofy on codein and antibiotics, and I'm trying to eat chicken soup, but it's mixing with the congealed blood in my tooth socket and it's just all kinds of nasty.

I require hugs.
