I said I'm sorry. I've made mistakes, but fear was never one of them.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh god, I'm already dreading my 8am meeting tomorrow. Blerg!

Also, I think I just heard higher-ups say my name across the office, but no one's come to talk to me, so maybe I'm just crazy.

My hallway smells like rotting garbage.

It's sad how often I've watched that kiss.

Really sad.

I'd be willing to bet that Pete has watched it more times than you, dude. I think he cheers himself up when he's down by molesting Patrick, and really, that's a coping mechanism I am behind 100%.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Hi all! I just had my wisdom teeth pulled and I am waiting at my office for the pharmacy to fill my vicodin prescription. And then I am going home. I wish I had the internets at home, because I could go home and watch boykissing while on vicodin.

Hi, Sophia! See why I say that internet-at-home is a necessity these days?

Hint for coping with tooth extraction aftercare: frequent gargling with warm salt water. You don't have to tip your head all the way back (which I find choke-y), just swish it hard back around the extraction sites, and don't be too distressed if it comes out a little grungy when you spit. I keep a tall glass of clear cold water to swish with immediately after, which makes the whole process a little less distressing.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Cheers me up too. I fully support this.

Sophia, I also recommend the salt water, but suggest you find a syringe of some sort (in the baby aisle maybe?) so you can point the icky tasting salt water directly back to the place of extraction and don't have to roll it over your tongue. Just be gentle with the water.

Like Sparky says, be gentle.

Whatever you do, DO NOT flush too hard.

That's how I got dry socket.
