susandennisTooth Report: The stitches are dissolving and my tongue is getting used to them anyway. There is still enough soreness so that chewing is not that much fun.
Devon (from the dentist office) called this morning - finally. I was beginning to think she's dumped me. They want me back for a look see in 10 days. They have some kind of mouth rinse they want me to use that requires a prescription. Bother. I told her I'd would not be able to get it filled until tomorrow. She's calling it in to the drug store next to the library where I guess I'll go tomorrow - I need to return some books anyway. I am a little tweaked that I specifically asked several times if there was anything I needed to get at the drug store for after care and they specifically told me several times, no. And now, this. It's minor but then I'm easily tweaked. But, anyway.
I made my reservations to visit Mom for Thanksgiving. I actually have very little patience for travel stuff any more. Getting the best price is just a pain in the ass. In the past all I needed was plane tickets and that was bad enough. Now I need plane tickets plus car rental plus hotel room. Triple pain in the ass. Plus the one airline with the best flights is US Air which keeps looking like it's going to fail. But, I made the reservations - on Expedia which I hate because of their pop up ads - except for the hotel. The only hotel that is handy is a Hampton Inn and their prices were better at their website which I get a discount for being old.
Anyway - it's all done. I did not tell Mom before I did it. She will be in her new two room suite by the time I get there and I'm pretty sure she's going to suggest we just blow up an air mattress and I can stay there. So I wanted to make sure everything was a done deal before I told her. It is and I did.
I leave on the red eye the Friday before Thanksgiving and return about 7 p.m. ish on the Friday after. It will be fine.
