Wisdom Teeth, Baby Darcy, Jello and Drugs

I had all four of my wisdom teeth surgically removed Friday. I would be doing fine if it were not for my top right side...it is extremely painful.

I was able to recover from surgery at the Neyland household. Darcy helped me a lot. We bonded while I was healing. We slept on the couch together and at times of wakefulness we stared at each other...neither one of us really had much to say.
I think everyone was a little nervous that I might drop her because I was pretty doped up on pain killers. Nonetheless I prevailed.

So I'm eating a lot of jello and soft cold things although not very filling it feels good.

I am a little out of it because of the Hydrocodone...I will explain with a story:

Early Sunday morning around 4am I was in a lot of pain so I decided to take a whole pain pill rather than half like I had been. Around 7am when I was feeling my best Johnathon got up to get ready for church and says to me..."hey I'm getting up, but if you need anything just yell for me" after he left the room I had remembered I needed something so I started shouting in a groggy, drugged tone "mom...mom..." It took me a little while...then I realized Johnathon indeed was not my mother and when he came back to the room I apologized for calling him mom.
He has been quite amused with all of this.

Words to live by...

...From NBC's The Office: season 3

Michael: "Dwight, what was the most inspiring, life changing thing I have ever said to you?"

Dwight: "'Don't be an Idiot'...It changed my life"

Dwight (interview with the camera):

"When I'm thinking about doing something I ask myself- 'would an idiot do this'- and if the answer is- 'yes' - then I don't do that thing."

Simple, yet life changing.
