the essence of uncomfortable

i am twitchy.

yes, that's right. twitchy. an itchiness in your limbs and brain that demands you do something, something right now, due to long periods of lazing about and not really challenging your mind or body. i hate having any sort of freedom taken away from me. not that i am an unusually active person but i loathe having the choice of activity taken away from me. idleness and inactivity is never so unattractive a prospect than when it is forced upon you.

in this case it was wisdom teeth extractration.
this morning. at 8:30.
involving anathesia, gauze, happy gas, idiotic sayings by me on said gas, and a wheelchair.

not extremely painful process or recovery, but just uncomfortable enough to force me to stay inside for today and probably most of tomorrow; resulting in a swollen jaw, which makes my face look slightly lopsided, a nasty coppery bloody taste in my mouth all day, and drowsiness.

all of which explains why i am complaining about my entire day in front of a computer with two icepacks strapped to each of my cheeks with a skiing headband.

a ridiculous picture isn't it?
