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.

Also the seasonal Angry Birds is annoying in the extreme as it defies the laws of gravity.

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.

normal

for you.

P-C in the seasonal one ice blocks will hang in the air unsupported.

for you

Sorry, sassy?

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.

I had laughing gas with my wisdom teeth. The doc kept reminding me to breathe through my nose.

I've never been completely out, just in twilight land. I vaguely remember being chatty during the C-section, once they'd numbed out the hideous neck cramp that had me caterwauling.

I'm sorry Grace was rage-y but so glad she's now chill and the doctor is happy so far!

ION: Today I went upstairs to meet with the person whose position I'm moving into, because she's being moved to her new position a week ahead of schedule so now we've lost a week of prep and transition time. She said she'd be in at 8:30, but when I went up there a little after 9 she hadn't arrived yet so I had to come back down. As I came back in, Rage Nurse said brightly, "You were in an awful hurry to get up there! You're just happy about all this, aren't you?"

What the fuck was I supposed to respond?

Yes, of course I'm just happy, because it'll be nice for a change to go in to work and not feel inadequate, useless and toxic and like I'd be doing everyone a favor if I just jumped off a bridge.

Yes, of course I'm just happy, because you are unkind and small and it makes me ill to share office space with you.

Yes, of course I'm just happy, because you are bitter and poisonous and have a heart the size of a caraway seed, and moving up there makes me just that much less likely to someday be convicted of workplace homicide.

Two more days, and that's IT.

JZ, in your position I would have replied, "Yes, yes I am!" in as cheery a tone as possible, and then not said anything else. Maybe work on spending the rest of the day in as an obnoxiously cheerful mood as possible, even if I was faking it. Because I bet that would drive RageNurse insane.
