An update? Here? No way!

Well, I'm finally updating after that non updating period of time where there were no updates by me on here. But that's just the way it goes sometimes. I get lazy.

Last Tuesday, I got my wisdom teeth taken out. I feel a little less smart. Hm.
They put the IV in my arm and shot me up with the anesthesia and I was out within about a minute. Didn't even see it coming.
The procedure lasted about an hour and a half/2 hours. And again, it only felt like 10 minutes. That's so weird.
When they woke up, I was seeing double of everything and was pretty dizzy. I was stumbling out the door. Then we (and by 'we' I mean Dad) drove over to the Wallgreens drive-through to get my prescription. I barfed out the door. Ew.
They didn't have it ready, so we went home, I went to sleep, dad went back to get it. He came back, slipped me some Penicillin and Vicodin and then I slept for about 4 hours. My face was all swollen and blood all over. When I woke up, there was a small pool of blood on my pillow and running down my face. I drooled blood all over. Eew.
I ended up washing that pillow 3 or 4 times before the stain came out.

Fast-forward a few days and my face is still pretty swollen and still bleading a bit. People at work thought I got chubby. :|

Right now I think it's getting back to normal. I had a bruise on my cheeks and I think they're finally fading.

Thursday night after work, I got a nice $12 carwash and filled up my tank and Friday morning I headed out to mommy's to help her move.
It rained on the way there (lying whether channel) and my car got filthy. :'(
It only took me about a quarter of a tank to get there, although I went down the back roads and you have to go slower on the back roads. So I'm sure that helped my MPG.

Moving was fun. Enjoyed some DELICIOUS cookie cake and such. I think I had way more than I should have. BUT IT WAS SO GOOOOOOOD. Mmm.

So we got that done. Met Heathers friends. Uh...yeah. weird.

Aaaanyway, I took off after (trying) to enjoy some Subway (teeth and all) at about 8:30 and got home at about 11. Went to bed around 12. Fun stuff.

Work was uneventful. All 24 hours of it. Bleagh. Oh well. It's over for another week.
OOO, I thought of an idea for a new monologue for when I go to Miami in December. I think it'll work out perfect. It's about finding a dead body in the woods and I want to start off with running on stage all scared and out of breath and stuff and say "OH MY GOD, YOU GUYS, I THINK I JUST FOUND A DEAD BODY IN THE WOODS"
Then I'll go on to describe what happened. I'm still writing it, though.
I'm trying to figure out what to compare the smell to. I want to be able to give the audience that mental smell of it when they think of whatever I'm comparing it to.
But all I've gotten "It was like opening a refrigerator that's had its power knocked out for weeks and all the food inside expired a year ago."
Something like that. Gotta work it out.

Today I had my Atomic Bomb Day speech. I think I bombed it. For some reason I was really nervous and even shaky a bit. That's not normal. Hmm. I don't think I knew the topic well enough. I stuttered enough and forgot a bunch of stuff. AHHH.
Oh well, we'll see what I get for a grade.

Next Saturday and Sunday I have my acting classes and next Sunday I have my photoshoot. I'll be sure to post the pictures when I get them.

I have to work out really really really hard this week and eat lots and lots and lots of protein. And tan, too.

SO, I'm gonna go work out for an hour or so, I will update again in the near future.

Ciao.

I wonder if your "stage fright" during your speech had something to do with losing your teeth . . . luv mommy
