Teeth.

Tomorrow I go to the oral surgeon for the eagerly-anticipated extraction of my four impacted wisdom teeth. I am not going to be put under, rather, I will be the recipient of the pioneering technique known as "concious sedation." According to the doctor, I will be able to answer questions, feel no pain, and not remember the surgery afterwards. I said, "Sounds like the dental date rape drug, eh?" and he was most assuredly not amused. At this rate, I'm bound to wake up with his initials carved in my belly.

Since my plans for the next few days involve taking enough painkillers to kill a horse and listening to Led Zeppelin and Depeche Mode until my ears bleed, I figured I should update now while I still have one or two functioning brain cells. Much has happened since my last update.

The most important thing is that I went to THE FAIR. The carnival, if you will. I love that place. Here's a quick rundown of things I did there:

  • Got an airbrushed shirt with my name on it.

  • Not content with just an airbrushed shirt, had a pair of thong underwear airbrushed with the word "rawdog" on them. The children gathered around the artisan as he sprayed my panties saying, "Mommy, what does 'rawdog' mean?" really vaulted this situation to the level of COMEDY GOLD.

  • Had my picture taken with Mary and DUBYA.

  • Had Mary grope me on a number of rides, including both the Zipper and the Widowmaker just for the sake of letting me say on my webpage, "I got felt up at the carnival." (She's a good friend, isn't she??)

  • Hmm...here's a cuter pic of us. Do you know that I have known Mary for more than 10 years?

  • Ate cotton candy and funnel cake until I nearly vomited.

  • Okay I've run out of time for this post, I have to go jet to the city that my tooth thing is happening in. No time for spell check. I'm getting delerious. I'm hoping to return to many nice emails and flattering comments. Please don't disapoint me, I'm going to be in pain.

    Durch Zufall bin ich hier auf dieser Seite gelandet und bin wirklich begeistert. Dabei habe ich laengst nicht alles gesehen. Aber was ich sah, gefaellt mir ausnahmslos. Ein dickes Lob an den Webmaster! Weiter so... Liebe Gruesse, Dagmar (die sich jetzt noch ein wenig umsieht...)

    WUAUUU! YOU LADIES REALLY LOOKS BEAUTIFUL!

    It looks like you smashed it right in at the fair, didn't you. Nice work Kid :-)

    well..sorry bout the teeth extraction (..yikes..that sounds bad....) but maybe the dentist will feel you up and take a pic??? then you can say the circus and the dentist...or...uhh..maybe not.... here's hoping for as little pain as possible... no candy apples at the circus for awhile.... E

    looks like mary's having a hard time maintaining any sort of a grip

    Meat? This is a perfect excuse to indulge in soft-serve ice cream!

    Of course I'm a freaking vegetarian anyway (subtle reference to Lina's 'about me' page).

    I love Lina.

    getting the wisdom teeth out is no big deal.

    they gave me the iv and gased me.. i woke up 45 minutes later and got up..i was sat back down into a wheelchair and taken to my parent's car..

    i slept for a few hours and got up to change the bandages... i left my parent's house for my apartment that night...chicken broth for 3 days..

    don't sweat it.. you'll be eating meat in no time.

    That was a nice picture of you in your air-brushed t-shirt. You are truly a classic beauty. Why didn't we get a picture of you in your air-brushed thong? I would have groped you at the carnival, and not just so you could say you got felt up. I would have enjoyed it.

    unrequited love always
