Usually I come out of anaesthesia a little confused but fine. Once I was so depressed I was weeping uncontrollably. That was the time that my now-DeX was there and the poor thing didn't know what to do with me.
Glad everything went well for Grace!
I didn't see the eclipse. Too cloudy, too damn cold. I saw one once with my mom, in our backyard, running into the house to get warm and coming back out, for three hours. It was beautiful.
I have to do self-evaluations for work right now, and I'm wanting to cry. My boss is such a whackjob, and I don't even know what she expects me to say. I did all right. I made some mistakes, no one died from them, my journals are on schedule as they always are, my EiCs and authors love me and I can prove it, and WTF why do we have to do this?
It's been a really good day today. I wish she wasn't ruining it with this damned thing that I shouldn't even be so upset about, but the last one burned.
When I had my wisdom teeth yanked in high school, my sister and I had ours done at the same time. I was first, so when I woke up in the recovery room, my sister was still zonked out in the bed next to me. The nurse came in soon after, and asked if I wanted anything. I looked at her and said, "Ook." She said, "What?" I repeated, "Ook." She still looked confused, so I held up my hands, pressed together pointing towards her, and then opened them up, repeating, "Ook!" The lightbulb went on, and she said, "Oh, 'book!'" I nodded, and she headed out to the waiting room where Mom was. She said, "Kathy's awake," and Mom immediately pulled my book she was holding for me and gave it to her without her even having to ask. The nurse cracked up and told me that my mom knew me very well.
Also the seasonal Angry Birds is annoying in the extreme as it defies the laws of gravity.
After wisdom teeth I was fired up and ready to go, tried to hop out of the chair. Then I was very giggly and wanted to go to the waiting room to tell all the other patients that they would be just fine. So basically a silly drunk. I tried to talk to my mom on the hour long drive home and made no sense whatsoever.

And normally the game adheres to the laws of physics so very closely?
I was completely normal after I had my wisdoms out. At least I'm assuming Lori would have told me if I'd acted weird. Or told
you.
I think the sleepy drugs mostly just make me chatty. A bit anxious, but mostly chatty.
P-C in the seasonal one ice blocks will hang in the air unsupported.
I am one of the few people I know who had their wisdom teeth pulled without anesthesia. I imagine it was because my mom couldn't afford it. I do remember the 17 shots of novocaine. I'm also not complaining, anesthesia makes me incredibly sick, which is a very. bad. thing. after a c-section.
