Well, I lived through it :)

One thing about being knocked out, it’s over before I know it.  Wasn’t near as out of it as I thought I would be afterwards.  Been eating stuff mashed potatoes and gravy, Jello-O, applesauce, tomato soup.

Not feeling much pain but I have been taking the pain meds anyway to keep ahead of anything that mind would otherwise surface.  Also started taking antibiotics and tomorrow will start taking steroids to keep the swelling done.  Kinda bleeds every now and then but nothing to be concerned with.  Anyway, think I’ll back in the chair in the living room and lay back with some more ice on my mouth.. switch every 20-30 minutes which side.  Only reason I’m on here was cause I just ate so I could take some pills. 🙂

Oral Surgery Tomorrow

Leave a reply

Well, tomorrow at 11:30am I have an appointment with the Oral Surgeon to extracate 6 lousy teeth out of my mouth. They’re gonna knock me out so at least the surgery will be over quick for me anyway. Then I’ll be recovering down at the folks for a few days and will probably be too out of it to do anything for awhile. Actually, mom will be driving me there and back. You’d think after this many years of evolution humans would have better teeth… combination of soft teeth genes and drinking cokes all my life I guess. This isn’t the first time. Few years back I had around 13 removed. Dentist thinks I won’t be at the point for needing dentures or implants yet but we’ll see. I’m effectively not eating with those teeth now anyway. Total cost is $1,640 but insurance is paying for $1,275 of it. But, if you add up what I’ve been paying for continuation of health benefits… I’ve spent that much anyway.

Anyway, I’ll post how it went when I’m able. 🙂

Hey! I have a blog now!

Well, decided I’d try setting up a blog and use it for my What’s New on my front page so people could make comments. At the moment I am trying out WordPress. While it took a bit of work, I also managed to write a XML parser script to parse the blog’s RSS feed to put the information here on the main page as well.  As always, I’ll probably be tweaking both the presentation here on the main page and the blog itself.  By main page I mean my primary website’s main page, not the blog. Confusing LOL.

I did install an anti-spam plug-in in an effort to keep bots from making comments. Will have to keep my eye on it. So far WordPress seems to be ok. Luckily the default theme was similar to my website. Someone make a comment LOL!  🙂

Ack, got a 403 Foridden when I tried to publish this. Dang mod_security. Let’s try this again, should be able to post now. Okay, that’s fixed. Now I need to see about getting the number of comments if any to indicate such on my main website.

Woot.. I got that working!  Well, I think’s it safe to post what I have thus far to my actual site. 

Got new movie and website updates.

Decided to get Snakes on a Plane. Actually, I’ve had it for a couple weeks now. On an icky note, went to the dentist today (what a lovely thing to do on Valentines day, LOL) and I get to go visit an Oral Surgeon to have 6 teeth removed. I’ve had crappy teeth since I was a kid…a genetic thing. The past few weeks things have gone downhill in my mouth and it’s started bugging me. Once again as I am typing this, I keep thinking about setting up a blog on my site. Wonder if I should put off really looking for a job til after I get over the mouth surgery.. since it will take a week to get over all the drugs I’ll most likely be on afterwards (anti-inflamatory stuff). I’ve done this before so I know what to expect. Joy, joy! 🙂

Oh yeah, I changed the top part of this page a bit…trying out a new weather sticker. Man, it’s 16°F right now… brrrrr!
