donk me up, tie me down

vicodin: word of day. yesterday’s word was something but i f’get, jg knows. typing w/ 1hand from bed. is like texting to you.

iam tired.

i am hating the lazy look of typing with one hand, so now am typing with two. Surgery was holy crap, a piece of cake, do it with one hand tied behind my back. to tell the truth i enjoyed going to sleep most of all. i take sleep where i can get it. now my skull is three teeth lighter. fortunately when i smile I’m not doing that ed norton/fight club bloody-mouth thing anymore.

My mom and I went to target this afternoon to fill my vicodin-substitute prescription. Suddenly my shopping inhibitions — my restraint — which are normally lowered in a target environment were suddenly gone. i bought two bottles of body lotion, a monkey [stuffed], King Kong DVD, a coffeemaker and Ho-ho’s.

Am sleepy. Am tasting hemoglobins. Am feeling like a tool for getting so worried about things. Last time I had mouth surgery, it was a bone graft for my upper mandibular type thing to rebuild it after the smashing, and that doc really put a hurt on me. Today was nothin’. A piece of piemonade.

Last time, my diary entry was like “GIGGADOOBABAGIGGY DOO DOO HEAD. Whopper down the hatch!” I was so stoned on whatever they gave me. Today it’s like, ” uh … fuzzy … sleep now.” Whatevs.

Owen was in a good mood all day. So cute. So friendly to the other ladies at the maxillofacial surgeons. I guess he was a good boy for my mom, too. Kept her hopping, of course, but he was a good boy.

More to say but it’s 7:51 and I am ready for bed. Thank you to everyone for the encouraging words. I love the internet. And I love you. And I love vicodin. And I love the office but I am going to miss it because I will be sleeping. Unless it coincides with my next dosage, in which case I am going to be eating some vanilla-caramel pudding fortified with Calci-YUM and watching it.

one half of a perfectly good bottle of lager, in my nose. just thought you should know. i admire your dedication—most people would, you know, wait for sobriety or something.

glad you made it.

Sounds like you are enjoying it just fine. I’m so desperate for sleep I’d let them yank all my teeth out right now if they would just let me sleep for 8 hours straight.
