Kristina Gets Her Teeth Yanked!
I thought about whether or not to do a post on this, but I figured I’d go ahead and make one so I don’t get emails from folks asking me where I am just in case crap happens and I’m away from my computer for a bit. I’m getting all four of my wisdom teeth yanked Friday morning at 9am, and I’m not sure how much pain I’ll be in during the ensuing days or how much potential recuperation time I’ll need in case of a complication from anesthesia or the actual surgery. W is released this weekend, and I still need to see How To Lose Friends And Alienate People before it completely disappears from every theater around here, but with this surgery coming up, I might not be able to get that stuff done this weekend. I am going to try as hard as I can to see HTLFAAP before Friday (I’m 99.9% sure I can catch it Thursday afternoon) and crank out a review before I’m conked outta my head on pain meds. Wish me luck!

It most be nice having insurance. I haven’t been able to go to a dentist in years.
oh no!!!
thats going to swell like a bitch kristina!
seriously put lots of ice on it because that swells alot lol
hope it doesnt hurt!
hey are you sleeping through it or not? better if you do unless you dont mind…
poor kristina…ull have ot eat baby food and drink juice because chewing is going to be difficult…trust me
I am sleeping through it. I couldn’t be awake and watch my teeth being taken from my mouth. I’d have a panic attack, no joke.
And food will not be an issue. I go through applesauce like nobody’s business, anyway, so I’ll be fine. I’m going to stock up on soup and baby food before I come back to school, since everything in the dining halls is hard food.
On the bright side, I’ll be able to do a killer Don Corleone impersonation for a few days!
or a young women version of john mcain lmao
xD
Good luck. Make sure to get local anasthetic though. Then you can watch the doctor through the whole thing. Feels weird too. Mine were impacted. So much crunching……
But in all seroiusness, it’s kind of interesting to see exactly what they do. And either way, you’re not going to feel it, so you might as well be awake.
Good luck!
The teeth are gone!
I’m typing this with a ton of gauze in my mouth to absord the blood and ice packs strapped to my face to prevent swelling. I was put to sleep so I seriously do not remember any of the surgery. I remember walking into the room and sitting down, getting fitted with an IV tube, and after that…nothing until I woke up in the recovery room. My mouth is bledding a bit but that’s normal, and my mom is hovering over me like a mother hen
I was scared for nothing, and the nurse who attended me when I woke up was incredibly sweet. I was so confused and scared because I kept falling asleep and waking back up again, but she was so reassuring. This one nurse bitch was trying to hustle me out of there like I was a nuisance, but the nice nurse named Maria told her off! She said, “Don’t rush her out of here! She’s not ready to go yet! Get out of here!” Maria saw that I was wearing a Sweeney Todd shirt and she talked to me about the movie (she loves Johnny Depp). I’m still a wee bit tired, but I’m okay and not in any pain.
hazmat loves sweeney todd
i got my hair cut today because my parents made me (they dont like the towering spikes) and she shaved my neck afterwards and i told her how i hate other people shaving my neck ever since i saw sweeney todd…
hazmat is glad kristina is still in one piece
=]
I thought Sweeney Todd sucked a big fat donkey cock.
May I ask why, Grundy? Is it that you don’t like musicals, or was there something lacking story-wise?
It just didn’t do anything for me, it also didn’t help that I’m not that big a fan of Burton’s current output as a director.
I have to admit, although I do dig Burton’s stuff, he is a one-trick pony. I wrote a paper on him for a class last semester. We had to pick a director and compare and contrast two of their films. I picked Sleepy Hollow and Edward Scissorhands, and I was stunned at just how alike the two films are, despite being made years apart. Both star Depp, both male leads are always in black clothing and have unruly hair (like Burton), both fall in love with the popular brown-eyed blond who has a jerk boyfriend, both are considered outcasts and are mocked and persecuted for it It’s just that he does that one trick so well that I keep coming back for more
In my opinion the last really good movie he did was Ed Wood. And after Mars Attacks! bombed he pulled a Kevin Smith and went back to some more familiar ground with Sleepy Hallow. Planet of the Apes was a paycheck gig. Big Fish has it’s moments but as an overall film I’m not a fan of it, and then…. well you get the gist of my thoughts.
The only bit in Big Fish that stuck with me was that sublime moment when McGregor spots Alison Lohman for the first time at the circus. Time literally stops and he pushes a few mid-air popcorn pieces aside to walk over to her.
I think the drugs they gave me are making me kinda hyper. I just went on a writing tear on this site
Viva la Percocet!
You should even yourself out with some booze.
Ha!
awesome! Glad you pulled through okay
