I'm an hour away from sitting in that dreaded dentist's chair while they do copious amounts of chipping away, drilling, sawing, and other things modern surgery has allowed us to do to others.
Today, I get my wisdom teeth removed. Again. Last time it was the bottoms. And only local anesthesia, they're not putting me under. So that means, pain and hallucinations and me valuing my life and more pain. Last time this happened, I promised myself, during the procedure, that I need to lose weight, take better care of my body, and all manner of things to make me a better person, human being, whatever. I kicked something like 25 pounds off that year and was in the best shape of my life.
I need this pain, more than ever, if I need to appreciate my body again, because I let myself run amuck, I haven't been watching my plate too much, my exercise is sporadic at best. I did do this body fat test and found that I'm 22.2% fat. That's good; I fall in the healthy range. The average American woman is 32%. But man, all my favorite clothes are getting tight, and that's no good. I don't have money to spend on new clothes, and I like my current clothes, so the best thing is just to get back to my Paris weight or even sophomore year of college weight. I can do this. Blurg. Sorry I write about my weight so much, it's just been such a problem since I've been a kid.
Okay, other things. I'm registering for my last semester of classes. I'm taking mostly lecture classes. I graduate this May. Weird! Then I'm back here in so cal for the summer to find an internship and hopefully a job. Yikes. I'm growing up oh so fast. I don't want to grow up!
Cher reminded me that this year will be my "Golden Birthday" since I'll be 23 on the 23rd of June. So maybe I should plan a big bash, mash it all with my graduation. I don't know. Times are tough, and I don't like huge bashes. "Bash" is a weird word. Okay, I'm going to stop writing now, I think I'm getting squirrelly since they'll be bashing my teeth in in less than an hour.
I'll see you on the other side.
