Its been Awhile...
Well hello people! Long time! I was confused if I should use "a while" or "awhile," I should have paid more attention in English class, I do know one is a noun and the other an adverb. Why is English so darn hard!! I am so sorry I am so bad at this; I have been so busy and lazy. The zeal to write diminished before I barely even started. Hopefully, its back! I come baring tales, perhaps not very intriguing but tales all the same, about my wisdom teeth removal. I begin... It was a bitter cold Thursday morning I walked into the dentist office with my two very good friends. I was giving legal documents that explained to me the "owners risks" of this procedure which I readily signed, I also requested my teeth be given back which was not granted. I was then taking to the theater, which looked like a complete replica of an execution chamber/death chamber, where my legs, face and hands were bound. Trust me, it looked like a complete scene from the movie Silence of the Lambs or the TV series Prison Break. I was not even giving the chance to count backwards like I had seen in one to many movies, my dentist just asked if I was ready and the next thing I knew I heard the nurse say what a trooper I was. You see, I wish at this point I could tell of the amazing dreams I had or rather how I went to heaven and Jesus told what an amazing woman I was turning out to be, but unfortunately I have no recollection whatsoever of those twenty minutes in that awful chair.
After the procedure, as I drifted in and out of consciousness, the nurse recited all the dos and don'ts to my friend and the only question my lips could utter, "I was promised a t-shirt, please could I get it?" I do not remember anything again until I was safely on my friend's couch, heavily drugged and numb. Surprisingly, I didn't feel any pain since I was so high on painkillers (no wonder people get addicted, it really works) I only vomited whatever came in contact with my mouth, gosh was that disgusting. Apparently, my body was fighting the anesthesia so it revoked whatever I ate which at that time was only water and Capri Sun. I think the worst thing about all of these was the hunger, try living on pudding and JELL-O for a week, believe me there are few things in life worse than that. I have to say my friends are amazing for buying me a truckload of ice cream, noodle soup, Capri-Sun and Jell-O (still looking for what to do with the remaining Chicken noodle soups). Apart from the food, the most annoying thing were the side effects of the painkillers, it basically knocked me out every single time, it took me ONE hour to get from the third floor to the first floor in the library- I had to nap for 20 minutes on each floor and I'm not kidding. It took a week to gain full use of my mouth, my extractions haven't fully closed, but nothing can get lost in there.
I was thinking of what a lifestyle blog meant and I think it should encompass the entirety of a person's life not just an aspect. So that is what this would be! Stay tuned we are going to be talking about something very very very interesting next time. Thank you for stumbling across naive dairies and reading it. I am entirely indebted to you. As always stay magnificent and enjoy the weather wherever you might be!
Love you but God loves you more,
