Well, I got to enjoy a four day weekend over what was a three day weekend for most, but I am not so sure that ‘enjoy’ is the correct verb to use, because I had my wisdom teeth removed at 7:30 AM Friday morning. I spent the rest of the day in pain and stupor.

I did manage to watch the Blindside, and all three movies in the Matrix trilogy, as well as complete the SquidFlicks 3.0 layout. I really don’t remember doing all that stuff, so it must have been the medication. Sunday was ok. I was still sore but the bleeding slowed a whole lot.

On Monday, Stephanie invited me over for lunch and a movie. We cooked some bowtie pasta, baked some brownies, then sat down and watched 2012. I thought the movie was ok but the afternoon was great!

Now, almost a week after the surgery, I am still sore. The four giant holes in the back of my mouth are constantly getting on my nerves. Food gets trapped, cold drinks cause it to sting, etc. I can’t wait for this to heal up completely. At least I won’t ever have to do this again!

All surgery sucks, period.

It’s been too long since the last blog post, but that’s partly because life has been pretty hectic over the past month. I was diagnosed with Mono just before my fall break trip to the Bahamas. I’ve had to miss several football games due to my enlarged spleen and I’ve been really tired most of the time.

I am almost better though. The doctor says my spleen is going down and that I can play in the final game of the season – Reidland at home. The fatigue may persist for a few weeks after though. I’m not looking forward to that. :-/
