My Kind Of Vacation

I didn't have to go to work today. In fact, I took a Vacation Day. And what did I do with my well-deserved and much-needed Vacation Day?

I had my bottom two wisdom teeth (that we were told were removed back in 1990) taken out, under General Anesthesia I might add. Exactly how I like to spend my "vacations" but since I am out of sick days for the um, year.. I didn't really have a choice.

I got home and my mom called the school because I hadn't been able to register online (and I couldn't quite talk with two big pieces of gauze and a numb bottom jaw & tongue). It kept telling me there was a problem and to call or email, so I would email and they never replied.

It turned out that they had my birthday typed in wrong and that's why it wouldn't let me activate my online account. So then I went to register for the class, and it said... "that class is not offered at that campus".. WTF?

So, long story short... too late... my mom and I ended up having to drive to another campus, register for the correct class & pay, and buy the correct book and workbook (which by the way, both of them and a new backpack combined were cheaper than the book the other campus had me buy), and then come back home. What a way to work off general anesthesia.

Because I wrote a check when I bought that other book, I have to wait 5 business days before I can take them back. I will take them back one day on my lunch hour.

We finally got home and I took a pain pill and passed the hell out. The next thing I knew it was 9pm.

I'm sitting here eating the first thing I have had in 24 hours, tuna helper cheesy noodles, and thinking I'm about ready to go back to sleep. At least I still have Saturday and Sunday of my "vacation." I think I'm going to start studying.

how the heck did you have 'em out twice? i think i'd call the first oral surgeon and ask him what's the dealeo. Get your money back. That sucks.

I useta eat tuna helper cheesey noodle when i was pregant with my son [15 yrs ago] ALL the time. I couldn't get enough of it, but now i can't stomach tuna at all.

Hope you're feeling better.
