… have a tooth extracted that what you are doing?? I ask you. :) Viral infections are not fun. No matter who has them but particularly so when it’s your husband (who is, I have to admit, a bit of a hypochondriac anyway). The good folks at Inova Emergency Care were truly wonderful (even the woman who poked a swab up both nostrils (not mine, thankfully!) and was taken aback at all the wailing coming from a (supposedly) grown man! Good thing no one in REAL pain was there.
Anyway, it’s a viral infection and they pumped him full of fluids (yes sir yes sir 3 bags full) and sent him home to be taken care of Dr. Snarkorama. I will probably stay home tomorrow and tend to his every need because I am just that kind of woman.
An unsolicited comment of which I am most proud: ZenMastr19: it’s cool as shit you like hockey Indeed it is, ZenMaster! :) And of course, the Caps rock! (Flyers suck!)
Anyway, tooth extraction is planned (key word) for Thursday.
Can I go to bed now, Mom??
Sorry to hear about Bill. But I know the feeling of taking care of someone who is whiny. Perhaps you can take out your maternal feelings on Bill. Good luck with getting that tooth removed; I am sure you’ll be anxious to enjoy solid food again.
Cloves. If you have any clove oil handy, that helps with toothaches, though it burns a tad at first; eating anything soft that has cloves in it also confers some mild analgesia. Something like an apple cobbler, made with extra ground cloves, or herbal tea with cloves dropped into it while it steeps, should help at least a little bit. I don’t need any extracted yet, but I have about 7 unfilled cavities, so I know kinda sorta how you feel. :( Will think good thoughts and send them your way. Ask for extra anaesthesia! Get a doggy bag if there’s any left over. :D
