Thursday:

Early doctor appointment. He told me to either live with my ankle or get surgery. Thanks, dude.

Blah blah blah, some good/bad things I don't/care to remember.

Friday:

YAY SURGERY! biggrin

Sarcasm. I'm in mucho pain right now. Feels like the Mirrors movie where someone ripped off my lip and stitched it back on. Literally.

But it was so awesome! First came the bubblegum stuff that numbed everything. Then the novacaine came in this huge black needle thing (I closed my eyes for that). It was little pokes but it was okay. I felt it appropriate to listen to Greenday. wink

Give me novacaine~

Then when they started cutting and ripping it was SO COOL because they were putting in all these scissors and needles and I could hear clicks and snipping sounds but I didn't feel ANYTHING! biggrin So I sat there listening to Numb and just smiled while they guy kept stabbing me with this nasty looking fishhook needle. It was over before the song even ended...boo...

And the best part of it was when the nurse changed the gauze in my mouth and said, "Oops, I pulled your lip too high and got blood on your nose," and I started laughing while she wiped it off. Mum looked like she was going to puke. rofl rofl rofl

So I rode home on the motorcycle (dad was in the waiting room) and then we switched from the street bike to the dirt bike and went to the library to return my schizophrenia books (I stopped at the house to wipe all the blood caked on my mouth away). It felt so good to be on a bike again..to feel and see the comraderie between all the bike peeps riding their Harleys and Kawasakis and street bikes.. heart

Then the novacaine started to wear off...

They told me to eat popsicles and ice cream for about three days. Which sounds good in theory. But it doesn't fill me up at all. So I cheated and made a grilled cheese. heart

MUCHO MUCHO PAIN. THEY SAID I WOULDN'T EVEN NEED THE PAIN MEDS THEY GAVE ME BUT THEY WERE WRONG. I HAVE A VERY LOW PAIN TOLERANCE WHEN I AM NOT PUT IN AWKWARD SOCIAL SITUATIONS. GAH GAH GAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's a good thing that you all aren't here right now. I feel like screaming every time I smile.

EDIT: It's 7 and started to feel like only an ache now. Woo.
