5 days, still black & blue

Well, the offending tooth is out out out in 20 pieces, (which i have proof of in a small baggy). The drugs, well, I hate to say it folks, they are pretty good right now, but alas, a junkie I will never be. I am still black & blue along my lower left jaw, it looks like someone took a good punch at me, & I am still numb! I think my diet has become entirely liquid, which really sucks (sorry folks) for a steak gal like me. On the good side, I have made enough dishcloths to last a year. My son (who will be departing for the windy city soon) will have a large stash to begin housekeeping with!
