Chipmunk To The Rescue!

Well well well, after all the hype of thinking I was going to be laid up for days on end, high off pain killers, and unable to down anything but SlimFast...I feel FINE. Yesterday all I did was sleep off the rest of my anesthesia for about a half hour and sat upstairs watching HGTV. Not to mention I ate more food than I normally do with full function of my mouth! Yogurt, oatmeal, a little soup, a little cup of mac and cheese, some ice cream, and a scrambled egg for dinner. WTF. That sure wasn't part of the plan! I didn't even need a pain killer until about 7 last night, and even then I could've gone without it. I was sitting up and talking about how bored I was and working on the computer for my lingerie logo. Caleb came over to baby me but soon realized I needed none of that. He did bring me pretty roses and a movie to watch, though (: Love him.

Now, I'm on day 2 and I still haven't needed any pain killers. Mom fed me some Advil this morning but other than a little discomfort opening my jaw super wide...I'm doing surprisingly well. The left side of my face, though, is extremely HUGE. I look like a chipmunk storing food for 3 winters. And the numbness has yet to go away on that side...I sure hope they didn't hit a nerve or something. I'd like to come away from this with full feeling in my face! 

Sabina came to pick me up and we made a quick coffee run to Black Rock. YUM. I've been craving coffee so bad. I can't having anything super hot though so I got a yummy iced coffee and I have to sip it from the cup without the help of the straw, which kinda sucks, but the coffee is delish. 

Caleb called this morning and he is deathly ill! Poor baby. He can't move, he's in so much pain he could barely dial my number! Headache, chills, and sore throat. I feel so bad! I had a sore throat last night, too, but it's gone now. I sure hope he didn't catch anything from our house since Mom was sick last week. I feel like I need to bring him some soup and Advil and something for his throat but I really don't want to get a virus on top of the puffy party that's going on with my mouth right now. That would suck. Ah, what to do, what to do.

I suppose I should be the good girlfriend and hustle to my baby's rescue! I won't stay long, though...and maybe I'll wrap my face in a scarf to avoid germs (:
