this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I'm surprised at the advice the Internet is giving me about swelling after the tooth extraction (these are websites of dentists/oral surgeons, not yuhazdentalproblems.com) -- for the first 24-36 hours, use ice, but then after 36 hours, use heat for swelling.

I thought it was one outlier bad dentist, but then several sites said it (and it wasn't all a copy-and-paste of the same site, either, which you can see sometimes with medical advice).

Does that sound right?

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I bravely ventured forth to the grocery store -- bravely because it's 92F out and very sticky. But I came home with ice cream (technically ice coconut milk, OK?) and lemonade bars and other good stuff, so life is better.

Next I'm finishing up my work-from-home for the day....

FWIW, Teppy, I've been advised to use warm/hot salt water, and have had plenty of extractions, so.

I've been rinsing with warm salt water, but using a warm compress on my face was just something that didn't sound right (versus using a bag of ice).

Someone needs to take away my Costco card. I came out of the store today and couldn't fit everything in the trunk because it was still full up with stuff from the last trip. Oops.

What impression did I ever give that I care two shits about metal music? Seriously, have you not been paying attention to my severe lack of related fucks and knowledge? If it's not Alice Cooper, likely I know nothing of it, and rather turn elsewhere for grammar reference.

It's not the metal thing: it's the gay, leather thing. Which, because I'm me, I just assume EVERYONE knows and cares about.

It's why I'm a verb amongst my work friends. Err.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I introduced my parents to the phrase "hot as balls" today.

My sistah! I have to stay away from Costco unless I have a very specific list, otherwise, I'm eating brown rice for 3 ''months because that 10 pound bag was such a good deal.

Yay Jesse for moving success! (Although I suppose a yay! is in order for widening your parents' verbal horizon.)
