Thou shalt not...

...take mundane, daily routines like brushing your teeth for granted, ever.

WHY?

Because I #$%^#@#@%$^%@$%&%&(#% cannot brush my teeth properly due to the @#$%@$%&^$*$^@#$!@$ infection in my left jaw. I couldn't even open my mouth for a proper meal, let alone stick a toothbrush into it and clean my teeth properly, especially my molars.

It sucks, man.

I can only make do with brushing the parts I can reach without yelping in pain and then gargling with Listerine's Tartar control antiseptic mouthwash.

The directions on the bottle's label says to gargle for 30 seconds. Heck, the mouthwash stings your oral cavity so much that you'd rather swallow the mouthwash than let it stay in there for another millisecond.

Of course I didn't drink it, I was afraid that it will burn my stomach. I spit it out after about 5.4323462 seconds because it stung so much I thought I was going to lose all my tastebuds and sensory nerves that when I talk, I'll probably go, "ud aw-ing ear, i yaw you ur" (translating to "Good morning dear, my jaws still hurt.")

Heh heh heh. Not very funny, hor?

I'm just so glad that I have this big teddy bear.. Oops. I mean, hubby (who feels like a teddy bear when I hug him, that's why I keep referring to him as a teddy bear. But it's kind of sweet, isn't it?) who tries to ease my pain by giving me warm hugs when we sleep and a sweet kiss in the morning on my swollen cheek when he wakes up (and no, I didn't faint from his morning breath); followed by another on my forehead before he goes out to work.

So sweet, the big guy. Many smooches to him. =)



I'm meeting Seah PZ tonight, a cherished girlfriend from secondary school whom I have not seen for a super long time, for like 2 years? The last time I saw her was on her 21st birthday and to think she just celebrated her 23rd couple of weeks ago.

I was so excited about our dinner date tonight, I dressed up and made up before leaving home for work. *Chuckles*. Everyone asked if I was going on a date tonight. Well I am, only that it's a date with another female. An important female.

I just hope my jaw loosens up a bit for our dinner at Cafe Cartel so that I wouldn't look oh-too-delicate tonight and invoke stares from other diners. Gosh, I'm hungry already thinking about dinner. Can't wait!
