Aug 12 04: I have no lower lip and I must scream
So I had gum surgery this morning. What a way to start the day. Anyway, now I’ve got a big hole in the roof of my mouth and a brand-new strip of gum tissue across the front of my lower jaw. (Long story, but it’s not because I haven’t been flossing, Mom.) I am Novocained to the gills as well, which means that, say, drinking water has suddenly become something of a challenge. I had to look in the mirror to verify that yes, my lower lip was still there.
‘Cause, you know, I’d hate for it not to be there.
