milkshakes and soup

i've never been truly high before until today. currently, i am feeling the effects of the lortab that is now part of my daily routine. no, i am not a junkie, however i did have all four wisdom teeth removed friday morning. they always joke about the way you wake up from anesthesia and have no clue what is going on. it's not a joke. i have absolutely no recollection of the car ride home. all i remember from yesterday afternoon was being woken by my mother every 45 mins to remove the rather nasty stuff from my mouth (i'll spare you the details).

pain was intense last night. not much swelling, but the pain was serious. all i ate from thursday night at about 11:54 to last night was half a strawberry milkshake. honestly, that is all i could open my mouth wide enough to to swallow.

mom is awesome at making soup. she made me three kinds, all equally wonderful. it really makes me happy about thanksgiving and christmas. i am so excited about cooking and stuff with her. i miss it while at school.

annoyances i have come to realize lately:

1. abbreviations

is it really that hard to say the whole word? miserable has turned into mis, perfect- perf, precious- presh, and the list goes on... it annoys me. i have found myself sometimes stooping so low as to say these little abbrevs. however i am trying diligently to rib my vocabulary of these shortenings.

2. taylor swift

i know it is shocking that i would have an aversion to taylor swift. the main reason is probably because she is so well liked by everyone else. no really. i don't like her. she honestly can not sing, or dance. she was pretty funny on SNL. and i also find myself singing her songs and on some occasions enjoying it. but really? entertainer of the year? kill me. just because all the little pre teens love love love her, does not mean she is the best entertainer of the year. whatever. off my soap box.

there are a few things that i have really grown to be obsessed with.

1. powerade zero.

its the most perfect drink i can think of. it's like water that tastes like candy for zero calories. and it has electrolytes and b vitamins. sara thinks i am slightly addicted and i might have been for a while, however i have come off of it for the most part.

2. justin beiber.

yes, i am coming clean. i find this new star so enjoyable to listen to. he really has talent. not to mention he is so cute. i listen to his videos on youtube a lot. slightly embarrassing, indeed. but still, i like the kid a lot. i mean i'd sing with him.

3. nikon d5000.

i'm finally going to get the camera of my dreams. i am an aspiring photographer and cannot wait to hold this treasure in my hands. it is going to be my christmas present from grandmama and papaw. i am beyond elated to receive this gift. get ready, i may even get a flicker site and everyone can look at my pictures.

and so you can tell i am a little bored. my medicine limits me and my mouth hurts too bad not to take it. i have been talking a lot more than i need to. i will probably post again today. i'm sure something funny will happen. until the next post...
