Illness, Sleepless Night, and an Unfinished Moogle

Unfortunately, I can't really stomach the vicodin very well. Yesterday I got really ill (twice, won't go into detail, but I'm sure you know what I'm talking about). So today I decided to halve the dose and this seems to be better for me. My mouth really hurts.. My jaw is extremely stiff, but I'm kind of glad to just have the pain and the stiffness and not the nausea. I could definitely use that extra bit of pain medicine, but I really don't want to get sick again. That hurt more than anything.

Since my body relieved itself of all of the pain medicine yesterday, I couldn't sleep the entire night because I was in so much pain. I finally fell asleep around eight, but woke up at nine because of the pain. When Billy left this morning, he went to kiss me and then started laughing because my face is all swollen! He said it was cute lol I said he was being mean :P

So now I've been really tired all day, but couldn't fall asleep :( I distracted myself by watching Nausicaa Valley of the Wind, which made me feel better ^^. I really love his movies. What an amazing imagination! (If you're not sure who I'm talking about, it's Hayao Miyazaki, who is so great!!) Yesterday, I watched My Neighbor Totoro, which also made me smile, except I can't physically smile right now...lol. 

My mom is so sweet, too. She just came over with a card and a bouquet of daisies and my favorite: potato soup! (Unfortunately I couldn't eat the potato soup, because of, well, the potatoes lol.) She also did the dishes for me :)

Dungeon Hero X Moogle Doll! (work in progress...)

A couple days ago I started making another moogle doll, but with a twist ^_^ I'm making this one in Mog's Dungeon Hero X costume! As you can see, I have a long way to go. I've only completed the head, ears, body, and red scarf lol. The legs, arms, and wings are already completed, I just need to attach them. I haven't decided how to construct the belt and mask yet. I'm thinking of painting the face with black acrylic paint instead of embroidering this time. I've never painted on a face before, so I'm a little nervous about that part. I'm definitely going to practice on a scrap piece first.

I'm making this for our friend Chris, since I think I promised him one lol but also he bought Billy and I some awesome presents. He bought me Dax the Skelanimal dog and a Kodocha hat ^_^ Sorry if I look a little mean in the picture. Like I said, I can't really smile lol. I did my best! XD

Isn't Dax soo cute?? He glows in the dark, so when we go to bed there's a little skeleton dog sitting on my dresser lol. I love that hat, too. It has little purple wings on the back. The ears are wayy bigger than they look in the picture, though haha.

Wisdom Teeth Are OUT!

Well, this morning I had the oral surgery and had all four of them removed. The experience wasn't terrifying, except for the gas part. It wasn't necessarily "Terrifying!", but very strange. I was feeling absolutely fine, a little light-headed, until I suddenly realized I couldn't feel my feet or hands, or my whole body in fact. Billy was in the room as they put me to sleep, and he said it seemed like I kind of panicked, because my heart rate spiked. The nurse asked me if I was ok, and that it was fine to breath through my mouth to ease off of the gas a little. So I did and the feeling returned a little, enough for me to feel a slight pinch in my arm as the doctor put in the i.v. I didn't even feel the medicine go in, and actually, I don't remember much after that. The nurse and Billy helping to the car is something I vaguely remember. He stopped at Hardees or something to get me a milkshake. He said when he looked at me while we were in the car I had drool/blood running down my chin haha!

Drinking that milkshake was the most awkward experience ever, since my lips and chin were completely numb. Billy had a good laugh, since every time he looked at me I had milkshake pouring down my face XD

Unfortunately, the numbness is really starting to fade now, and all I can taste is blood. The pain is slowly creeping in, and, to be honest, the only reason I'm on here relaying my experience is to distract me from it! I took a vicodin with the milkshake, so Billy expected me to still be asleep. But I think the pain woke me up. Wow, all four teeth at once! I mean, I'm glad to have it all over with, but this is going to suck!


Hey, where's my applesauce?! I'm starvin' here! :D
