Out for a day or 2

Hey guys, I'll probably be a bit scarce around here because I got my wisdom teeth out this morning

The procedure was cake. Felt a ***** in my arm and I passed out. Then, what seemed like half a second later I woke up with gauze in my mouth he said "all set!" Very strange experience to be honest. So I've been sleeping for a while and as of right now the pain is starting to set in, just took a vicodin so hopefully that'll help, but I'll probably sleep the good portion of this day away.

Anywho, someone go eat a big juicy cheeseburger for me, god knows I can't have one

Later guys.

Haha, I had all four of mine pulled at once...and three were impacted.

The holes in the back of your jaw are distracting to say the least. It was almost a full week before I was back on my feet and ~100%.

I got three pulled, I dunno if this is gonna get any worse than it is now but... the numbing has warn off almost completely and I'm totally mobile walking around the house. My face doesn't look very bloated at all... I'm really not sure what to expect. As you can see I'm here typing at the computer

Let's home I DON'T get any ideas while I'm on vicodin. My truck might end looking like eco's pink van

Yeah I'm not feeling to shabby as of yet... It's 7:15pm here and the procedure was done at 9:15am... I'm hoping that I've seen the worse of the pain and swelling but who knows. KEEP TALKIN TO ME! You guys have to replace my friends and roommates while I'm bed ridden

Be careful in your weakened condition. ECO is on a terror and cornering everyone who left a derogatory comment about his van. I don't know why he's after you, but he is.

skan, feel better and thought you would like to know the origins for the name wisdom teeth:

Etymology

They are generally thought to be called wisdom teeth because they appear so late—much later than the other teeth, at an age where people are wiser than as a child, when the other teeth erupt. The English wisdom tooth is derived from Latin dens sapientiae. The same root is shared by German Weisheitszahn, Dutch verstandskies, Belgian-Dutch wijsheidstand, Norwegian visdomstann, Danish and Swedish visdomstand, Finnish viisaudenhammas, French dent de sagesse, Portuguese dente do juízo, Spanish muela del juicio or muela cordal, Italian dente del giudizio, Romanian m?sea de minte, Slovenian modrostni zob, Croatian and Serbian umnjaci, Hungarian bölcsességfog, Czech zuby moudrosti, Polish z?by m?dro?ci, Russian ???? ????????, Bulgarian ?????? (meaning wise man), Estonian tarkusehammas, Hebrew ?? ???? (shen beena) and Greek ?????????? (fronheemeetes). There exists an interesting Dutch folk etymology that the Dutch word verstandskies is derived from "far-standing" (ver-staand) molar, and that mistranslations of the Dutch word (in which verstand translates to wisdom) are the root for corresponding words in other European languages.
Turkish refers directly to the age at which wisdom teeth appear and calls it 20 ya? di?i (20th year tooth). In Korean, its name is Sa-rang-nee (???, love teeth) referring to the young age and the pain of the first love. In Japanese, its name is Oyashirazu (????), literally meaning "unknown to the parents," from the idea that they erupt after a child has moved away.

Just the way he addresses you I guess. He doesn't seem to be as bad as I figured he'd be a while ago. I've been avoiding him since I read his reply about his van.

Nah eco's not a bad guy, we just like to give each other a hard time. Don't take him seriously, we're joking around most of the time.

And ql2, thanks for the history lesson My mom and I were just actually talking about why they're called wisdom teeth today. Thanks for bein' nice to me buddy, I've had you on my ignore list since we last got in trouble from admin, and I just removed you yesterday. Hopefully this can be the start of better relationship 'tween us
