the fruits of wisdom

If you guessed that this was about wisdom teeth, then you're right. Monday I participated in a study that removed all 4 of my wisdom teeth and gave me some experimental medication. In the interest of not revealing anything I shouldn't, I'm not mentioning anything else about it- except that it is now two days after my surgery, and my sister says that I look like a lego person because my cheeks are so swollen. I can barely open my mouth, and chewing is a fond memory. Mom found an icepack that i can actually strap to my face, so that's what I'm wearing- I can't wait for the swelling to go down. My gums don't hurt too much, but the swelling makes everything worse.
Bleh.
