I almost wasn't going to post today... but I figured I'd get all my anger out instead. I was feeling GREAT this weekend... going for walks... COOKING (however it was mentally painful seeing food before my eyes)... I was way beyond 2 weeks post-op. Then, during the Bachelorette Finale on Monday... the left side of my jaw started feeling REALLY tender and sore. But, for the Bachelorette, I manned up and got through it (my opinions on the outcome will come later). Thank gawdd I had a 2 week check up with the surgeon... and what did they find? AN ABSCESS. My horses get abscesses often in their hooves, and I know exactly how to treat them. So, yup, I have one in my MOUTH. For those of you who have no idea what an abscess is, prepare yourself: It's basically a ball of fluid... and it just drains out and eventually dries up. SO the surgeon poked a hole & it will continue to ooze out into my mouth for the next few days... AND if you think THAT'S disgusting... well the antibiotics that I take 4x a DAY taste like greygoose vodka with the most awful taste. It BURNS to go down... ok I'll stop explaining how disgusting it is but seriously, COULDN'T MY RECOVERY HAVE GONE EASILY? Now I'm another 2 weeks mouth shut. Buh bye to another 10 pounds (a bonus but I really just want food now). Ok, so my negative energy is pretty much gone I think... tomorrow my positivity will be back. I get one day to whine, right?
BACHELORETTE. I knew JP would win, especially when ABC kept being so pro-Ben during the episode. They ALWAYS do that. They set Ben up to win & then BAM, JP. Oh my gawd, when Ashley's family was sitting & chatting- the brother. Did you notice him? He was DRENCHED IN SWEAT. He kept patting his body with a towel & sweating EVERYWHERE. I haven't laughed so hard in a long time I just thought it was HILARIOUS. He just looked so uncomfortable. Poor guy... he obviously went to Fiji for the free vacation. He was havin' a rough time. Perhaps the family meeting should have been moved indoors with air conditioning? Just a thought. Next time.
AFTER THE FINAL ROSE: three words. GET A ROOM. I was tempted to change channels..(I tried; but couldn't) Ashley & JP were making me SICK. I give em a few months tops. Who knows, maybe they'll surprise me.
OK one amazing thing I discovered this weekend was a new nail polish. I wandered into a Shoppers & found this nail polish from Revlon. Typically I only use OPI or Essie, but I figured I'd try it. The colour is gorgeous- light purple & SCENTED. Not overwhelming, but nice. ANDD the polish went on lovely- looks like I got a manicure! They had lots of colours too. Enjoy:)
Alrighty, I'm tired. Time for bed. I leave you with one of my fave songs, ever.
