What I learned this week.

I'm brave.
I had tooth #1 taken out on Monday.

Novocaine tastes horrible.
The shots weren't too bad but the taste after was Y-U-C-K-Y

I don't mind cleaning up my own blood as much as I do other people's.
I realized this as I was cleaning my room after the extraction and also as I was wiping my bloody foot prints off of the bathroom floor because of a freak razor accident.

Amoxicillin might make me very cheerful.
My family has some emotional allergic reactions. Chocolate makes my brother depressed, amoxicillin makes my gramma grumpy and it seems to make me happy and nice. (Ask Linwood.)

I can remember to take my drugs.
I have to take antibiotics every 6 hours because of some possible infection and I haven't missed a dose yet.

There is nothing to eat if I can't eat dairy.
I've heard that dairy might cause infection so I've decided to stop eating it for a week. When I'm hungry I mostly drink juice. Soon I'll be able to open my mouth wide enough to eat something else. Hopefully... I'm really hungry.

The tooth fairy doesn't come for adults.
I didn't get squat.

I can make dinner!
I made dinner 5 times this week! Thanks to simplifysupper.com

I'm not good at reciting Shakespeare while polishing someone's teeth.
But any other time, I'm pretty good.

Here are some pictures from this week.

My numb face.


Notice the blood on my cheek.


The mess.


Probably singing "How Much is that Doggy in the Window".


Trying to look cool.

6 Things

Tagged by Lex, I need to post 6 things that you don't know about me. This is difficult for three reasons, I posted 100 things about me not too long ago, I'm an open book, and I don't know who reads this so who is it that doesn't know stuff about me? I'll do my best.
1. I don't like to wear red because it was our school colors and red t-shirts just remind me of Moon Area High School.
2. I've never had butterflies in my stomach.
3. I got caught skipping school once but I talked my way out of it.
4. When I would recite the Pledge of Allegiance every morning, I wouldn't say God because I thought that was using the Lord's name in vain so I would just move my lips so I wouldn't get in trouble.
5. I haven't read a single word of a Harry Potter book.
6. I make up cheers for silly everyday things. Example: "One more thing! *clap* One more thing! *clap* One more thing for my list!"
That last one might be a little embarrassing, but there are more where that came from.
