Synergy.



This is what I tend to look like if I have incurred a nerve injury via my aching tooth. The left side of my face is swollen. I haven't shaved in two days. That's unfortunate, since I really enjoy shaving. I've not washed my hair in two days -- hence the hat. I think I need to inform you that I smell off. A couple of days ago I had what appeared to be a major toothache. This dental ache then developed into a sort of living hell, for myself personally. Yesterday swelling had started to breach the contours of my left cheek. This then permeated into even greater swelling this morning with the inclusion of a swollen eye lid. Essentially I look like someone went mental on the left side of my face. If I had taken off my glasses you'd see. And then you'd feel sorry for me. Maybe. Note the glistening, left of my nose -- this is where the swelling begins.

The pain has subsided but I don't know how much longer I can take this swelling business. I just feel awful and kind of want to take it out on anyone. Randomly and the like. For whatever reason, today I hate the words synergy and diversity. In this particular case, don't think of diversity relating to races, think it more having to do with people -- and the abundance thereof. I would surely die in Japan. It's on days like today where I just know if the person waiting in line at the local grocery store is one item above the 8 item limit for the Express Lane, I'd just lose my shit.


I had initially planned on going to the Mogwai show tomorrow night, just down the road (I'm not going now). I hate Mogwai. I think they're shit. But I did want to see The Twilight Sad, who are apparently opening for them. That's on par with Dr. Phil having written his book on weight loss -- which is to say it makes no fucking sense. I don't know what to say about this band. They're amazing. According to my iTunes I've listened to the above song, "And She Would Darken The Memory", over 400 times. This is excluding my iPod. That's fucking crazy. I'd LOL at that absurdity if it didn't hurt my face so much. Anyway, it's somewhere on my shortlist of Greatest Songs Ever Made. It's epic.

Aww! Are you doing the icepack thing? Alternating hot and cold sometimes helps too! If it helps, you have fabulous skin, and I'm jealous.

I did the icepack thing yesterday.
It had little effect, if any.
It looks a lot worse in person. ugh.

Thank you.

OUUUUCH. Have you gone to the dentist?? You might have an abscess. If the pain went away maybe the nerve died? IDK IDK you should get that checked out. FEEL BETTER!!!

Abscess. That's a fun word.
Not been to dentist.
I've had something like this happen before, a long time ago. Not this bad with the swelling. I'll wait a little bit before I figure out what to doski.

Last night was brutal. I couldn't sit in one place for more than a second. I spent the evening pacing around my apartment in agony. When I woke up this morning I was like "hmm, interesting how I can't fucking open my left eye TOO GOOD" :\

awesome possum!

THANK YOU

GO TO THE DENTIST! The longer you wait, the more money it will cost...

You cheeky cheeky cheeky monkey.
Maybe. But I don't have time for that shit right now. I especially don't have time for the pain that would ensue afterwards.

What do you think of Little Britain in America?

You know, technically you don't need to wash your hair every day - 2 times a week is more than enough :)

I'm with you: Don't go to the doctor until gangrene sets in. I HATE the doctor.

I just realized that I don't actually know what your *face* looks like. No basis of comparison. But your eye looks painful. :(

I assure you it was [painful].
Today seems to be the height of the swelling.
I hope it is.
There appears to be some signs of the swelling settling down.
I still sort of freak out when I have to touch my face.
It's very weird.

ouch. if it's still swollen you need to go to the dentist or your face might explode. and that would not be a win.

from past experience ive learned that putting it off only makes it worse when it comes to your teeth. i HATE HATE HATE the dentist but i dutifully go every 6 months. thank god i have an appt this month cuz i know something's going on in there right now. ive started eating certain foods on one side of my mouth.

GO. NOW. STAT.

p.s. have you lost weight? or does your body look smaller in comparison to your swollen face? haha.
