"Some nights the painkillers make the pain even worse"

I can't drive with this stuff. It's making me angry, but so happy too. I saw the oral surgeon today for a post-op checkup. He said that normally, the operation takes him 15 minutes. Mine took 45 minutes. The difference is in the way that mine were growing in. They were impacted. One of my bottom teeth had to come out in a bunch of pieces. All of the removed teeth had been growing in sideways, so the gap that needs to eventually close is twice as big. One more week until my mouth can open as wide as it normally can. I still feel as bad as I did after the day of surgery, unless I got the V in me. The little wanna-be v just doesn't do the job.

So I guess today is just a day to (continue to) sit at home and watch the Bears game. At least there's something to keep me somewhat occupied. What a sweet break though! Come home from college where I eat a lot of shitty food at the student center cafeteria, and I come home to all this great food and...can't eat it. Plus I can barely see any of my friends that I already hadn't seen for a while. Do nothing. Eat nothing. Etc. Bad timing.

Read Nelson Algren. The Man with the Golden Arm. Really good stuff, kinda helping to keep me occupied too.

Etc.

P.S. I played around with the site's layout a bit, made it a little less tacky. Added an option to turn theme music on or off, added some really cool and interesting links, and removed the pointless poll. Let me know what you think, please. I appreciate it.
