Wisdom Teeth Woes

I am in full on grinch mode. The past few weeks since returning from our road trip have been one thing after another. In my infinite wisdom, I decided to delay all the necessary appointments to the end of the year. Throw in the website revamp and a couple other important matters and hardly a week has passed without several days having at least one appointment.

Most of the time I go months with it being just me and my writing.

To make matters worse, I go in to get my wisdom teeth extracted tomorrow. It’s a rite of passage I’ve thus avoided until now. Four years of putting this off until I can’t any longer. Now, they’re impacted and growing into the teeth next to them so they have to come out. Or as my dentist said, “Your time is up. They must come out.”

I do not want to do this. I do not want to do this at all.

I very much wish I could bury my head in the covers and hibernate for the rest of winter, but that’s not what adults do.

I just hope its not like the last time I had a procedure where I spent half the time before the drugs put me under explaining all about the plot of my next novel and how this was such an interesting experience that it needed to be included in a book one day.

They found me very entertaining. I, on the other hand, was very embarrassed. And wishing they’d recorded it so I could be sure I hadn’t missed any great ideas.

Who knows? Maybe this will give me a break through with Aileen. Hopefully, I’ll remember it later.
