I'm so sorry sj.

I woke up from a pain meds induced nap and went to check on the extraction site - it looked okay the last time I looked. And now there's a piece of tooth or root or something poking out and no sign of a blood clot. Of course I discover this 3 minutes AFTER the oral surgeon's office closed so I called the after hours number and I'm waiting for a call back.

It looks almost like a baby tooth. I Getting this tooth taken care of is like to dealing with Hydra or something. As soon as I think I'm getting this fixed another thing happens.

I'm sorry sj

And askye, I hope they call soon and can reassure you.

Well they did. It could be food he said I got pissed.

I rinsed my mouth out with salt water.

You know how (I think it was your son) swallowed something and it was square and white and shaped like a tooth? Turns out I had a chunk of potato from my lunch of mashed potatoes stuck int here that looked like a tooth.

I got a different brand of mashed potatoes than I've been eating because they were on sale, they are also chunkier and I didn't realize it. So I feel foolish for over reating over a piece of mashed potato. At least it's nothing.

I wouldn't call that over-reacting, askye. I would have been very concerned, too, by something that looked like a tooth being where a tooth shouldn't be. And by "very concerned" I mean "probably needing a Valium".

Listen to Zenkitty; she is wise.

UGH -- I CANNOT EVEN deal with my husband's ex and selling this house. I'm so pissed I can't even go into details right now; I want nothing more to get her on the phone and get into a fully-honest, Chris Kluweesque screaming match at her at about what a fucking control freak she is and how much of a pain in the ass she is; she is NOT in sole control of the house situation, and she needs to get to therapy and stop screaming at my husband and getting emo over everything.

TAKE SOME XANAX, BITCH. I am thisclose to the edge of taking this to the mat. One more incident -- one more, after 5 years of her horribleness and bullshit -- and I am fucking taking her down. I have had ENOUGH.

Ugh, Strix. I'm sorry the situation is so awful.

I do not understand people in anyway. My hairdresser offered to meet me at TJ's after she was done with her last client. She said she would text me when she was done and was expecting to take about 45 minutes. An hour and a half later nothing an she is not responding to my text.

She actually called me, and I Zen breathed my way through a fairly reasonable conversation. I think she knows she can't talk to me the way she talks to Dan.

I'm calmer now.

Good for you, Strix. I'm glad she knows she can't talk to you that way.

I have spent too much money at TJ's and am home now. Still no word from hairdresser. Next time I see her she'll have a perfectly reasonable excuse, which I know because this is not the first time she has blown me off. This is all playing nicely with the complete self loathing thing I have going on right now.

Just now (3 1/2 hours later) she texted me to say that she was sorry and forgot to text me that she was stuck at the salon earlier. I'll shut up about this now. Sorry to be whiny.
