Oh, Wisdom Teeth.

I woke up this morning with a swollen face and aching jaw... to the point where I was in tears.

It was my darn wisdom teeth.

I already have 4 that have broke the surface... but I guess the 2 on the bottom are impacted. That basically means they are coming in sideways. All I can say is, its one of the worst pains EVER.

This a decent image of what my teeth are doing inside of my head right now.

Alex called a dentist office a few minutes before it was closing and told them what was wrong... and they said they should see me tomorrow morning at 8:30 as soon as they open.
WHAT!? I mean, I'm glad that I'm going to get this taken care of... but I haven't even had time to mentally prepare. YIKES.
When I go in tomorrow, they are going to take x-rays and then check the area and see if there is any infection. Since there is swelling, theres a good chance of infection which means that they can't operate until that gets better. So, I guess we will see!

The dentist preforming the "maybe" surgery said that I couldn't eat or drink anything but water at least 12 hours before the surgery...
Which would be fine... except Alex and I didn't call until 5pm and the food cut off would have to start at 8pm.
So the only thing I got to eat all day was a slice of pizza and a granola bar.
lets just say, I'M STARVING!

I tried to go to bed at a decent time... but its hard to sleep when Alex is working the midnight shift. I'm not too fond of sleeping alone. And then my mom called at like 11... so I stayed up and talked to her for about an hour.
I guess I finally ended up falling asleep... but then I woke up at 2:30 am... and CANNOT get back to sleep. I dont know if its because I'm nervous or because I'm starving! lol

I'm not sure if I want the surgery to happen tomorrow or if I want there to be an infection so I can wait a week. But if I do have to wait a week... the first thing I'm doing when we get out of that office is going to Olive Garden & getting the never ending pasta bowl!!! nom nom nom!
