Take Two

For the first time since Saturday I’ve managed to sleep through a whole night without getting up to take painkillers. The empty socket left by my lower right wisdom tooth have started hurting a bit again though. I guess it’s because the pad of mysterious, foul-tasting fibers the dentist put in on Tuesday fell out last night.

I had planned to have my only remaining wisdom tooth pulled on the 18th, just before Christmas. However, in the light of this experience I’ve decided to wait until the new year.
