Who me?

A "blogger"? I'm not sure yet. That has yet to be seen. I am definitely NOT a follower. At the same time, I am always looking for a way to express myself creatively. So this is my attempt. Commencing.

The world through my eyes. Mine are no different than anyone else's, but sometimes I wonder if I have some sort of skewed view of life. Take today for example.

I have ONE wisdom tooth. Yep, that's right, just one. Now how odd am I? When I was in middle school my dentist told me that I would never have to worry about it, that it would never come out. Now, as anyone who grew up with me knows, I never had the pleasure of having braces. No braces and only ONE wisdom tooth that would never poke it's ugly head out? How lucky can one get!?! I had it made! Well, until about the middle of April this year. Sad day, I know. I wondered what was going on. That guy decided his delivery date would be when I am 28? Who does he think he is? So, two weeks ago I went into see my dentist, Dr. Mark (well, Dr. Geddes, but he about as formal as I am...p.s. I'm not formal.) to get my bi-annual teeth cleaning and inspection. He suggested I get it taken out so that I wouldn't get any "bugs" or cavities back there...hmm...as many of you know, I dislike the dentist and all of the noises that emanate from said office with a passion. WITH A PASSION! So, needless to say, this option was not my first, however it turned out to be my only. So, this morning I gladly took my prescribed Halcion pill an hour before my appointment. I was a little worried it wouldn't kick in in time (hey, it's happened before--can I say BAD?). I took it at 1130am, ate my favorite food, cereal with milk, and sat on the couch. Kary, my "Jen-sitter" for the day, showed up about 5 minutes later. Another 5 minutes passed and I couldn't see straight. I resigned to my bed and let Kary have reign over the TV. From the time I laid down until the time I woke up around 3:30pm, I don't really remember anything. Worked well, I'd say. Still a little out of it, Kary made me some soup. I got a 4 course meal that consisted of Chicken Noodle soup, vanilla pudding, oatmeal creme pies (thank you Little Debbie ;), and gummy bears. What a guy, I know. So, I guess I haven't really seen much today but my bed and a 4 course meal. Oh yes, and my Kary. He has officially earned his "Jen-sitter" badge. I love that man.
