I finally got my bottom two wisdom teeth out today.
The anesthetic is really wearing off now, which is bitter sweet - the numb tongue was really annoying, but the pain is now very evident.
I have pain killers, but they make me drowsy. Not that I'll have much to be awake for this weekend by any means. Rest, rest, and more rest!
After my surgery, I went and exchanged more money for US currency. That was an amusing conversation with a numb and swollen face, with gauze absorbing the blood. I had to type what I wanted into the notebook on my phone.
I'm hoping the pain won't be too intense, so I can go and do some overtime tomorrow at work - but something tells me I'm shooting too high, and I'm going to be a blubbering, painful mess tomorrow.

Hopefully you're not having any troubles getting sleep. That's what's always tough for me. Everything else I can always do just fine, its just that if I don't get enough sleep I can't do anything. And it's very difficult to sleep when you're getting hit in the face with a hammer every few milliseconds. After I broke my collarbone that was the only time I ever took any of the vicodin that the doctor gave me was when I needed to sleep. It helped a bit, but the sleep I got helped a lot.

Yeah, my implanon only comes out in July, so I've got until at least then to decide if I want to remove it all together, or to replace it for another 3 years. We'll see how I feel then I guess...
