Thursday Thirteen #32 - Thirteen Reasons I’m Looking Forward to Having My Wisdom Teeth Removed

Jan 16, 2008 Author: Elizabeth | Filed under: Health & Fitness, Meme, Thursday Thirteen

Thirteen Reasons I’m Looking Forward to Having My Wisdom Teeth Removed
1. No more headaches!
2. I get to stay at my parents’ house and be babied.
3. Soup
4. Sorbet
5. Ice packs on my face.
6. Getting that happy, Heaven feeling whenever they put me out.
7. Good drugs

8. Potential weight loss from lack of appetite.
9. An excuse to stay in bed.
10. The season premiere of LOST is the same night. So I get to watch LOST on drugs.
11. Possibly a legitimate reason to miss class. (If I’m still feeling poorly)
12. SLEEP.
13. Last — because I have never done this before, thus have no idea what I’m getting
myself into and am probably not as scared as I should be.

Hehehe. I remember having the same thought about potential weight loss when I had mine taken out. The ice pack wraps on your face won’t be fun, but all the pampering from parents is pretty cool. Happy TT!

Excellent thinking! May all the pain killers have the desired affect!

I’ve had mine out and it isn’t bad at all. You will be fine. I love the fact that you are going to be pampered by your parents though. That’s a good thing. Have a great TT.

Ouch…all I can say is………OUCH! Good Luck!

I had it done once. Nothing to worry about. But if you can get some decent pampering and long sleep out of it, go for it!

Being spoiled by parents is A #1 if you ask me….I wish mine were around to do just that!!! You’re lucky.

My T-13 is posted. Won’t you join me?

I remember having mine out; it was a breeze. Once I woke up from the drugs, anyway.

Hope yours goes as well!

Good luck with that! I still have one of mine.

Happy TT!

I puffed up like a balloon then became infected- bleck! I’m delighted to be done with that. I hope you recover quickly and are truly pampered!

Happy TT!

You’ve got to be kidding. I think having mine out was the WORST experience of my life. The 2nd set had me out for about 3 weeks. I disc I was allergic to all forms of pain killers except Advil.

I’m sure you have nothing to worry about! I had mine out a couple of years ago (at age 27) and only got a measly 2 days off work! Boo! Good luck!

I wouldn’t mind some good drugs and sleep, right about now! lOl

betty January 17th, 2008 at 9:10 am 15

ugh I gotta get mine done soon and I am NOT looking forward to it!
Gail January 17th, 2008 at 11:41 am 16

14. AND you get to read all your TT comments on drugs!

You are right on all accounts, but especially #2 and #7. Good luck!
Holly January 17th, 2008 at 11:53 am 17

Yeah, it’s one of those things that you’ll feel all better AFTER it’s done…I lucked out and had mine done surgically as the dentist thought it would be better. Had GREAT drugs that way. (ah…the ONLY time I am for drugs my friends…)

Happy TT-13!

Smiles,

Holly

Good for you! Most people would write a list of thirteen reasons why they were dreading getting their wisdom teach out….
Sleeping Mommy January 17th, 2008 at 12:21 pm 19

I’ve never had mine taken out–I am constantly biting my tongue and cheek at the back where my wisdom teeth are. Good luck! Hope it goes well for you.

Hope you will visit my TT today!

The sorbet sounds good. I gave up on Lost after the first season. I really miss Gilmore Girls.
