omg i am in so much pain my vision is blurring and my eyes are watering up ... argh. i really hope i didn't get dry sockets ... i just read that 20% of people get dry sockets ... that is too high a percentage and now i am really worried. 

symptoms ... 

1. throbbing pain

2. foul taste or odor

3. enlarged lymph nodes

4. exposed bone

so i have throbbing pain but it has been getting better over the past few days and i obviously have the foul taste because of the medicated gauze sewed in my gums ... my face is swollen but i don't think it is my lymph nodes ... and exposed bone ... how am i supposed to see that?! also, shouldn't a symptom be ... BLEEDING?! i mean i am SURE i am not bleeding so ... everything should be ok, right? RIGHT?!

also i have a new reason to why being a girl is harder than being a boy ... according to wikipedia, "women are generally at higher risk than men of developing dry socket, because estrogen slows down healing." what the hell?! it's not hard enough that i bleed out of my butt every month but my hormones are working against me?! 

oh but i got a cute text message from jordan ... he drove past utmb on the way to the water park and he secretly blew me a kiss ... isn't that so cute?! [in unison now ...] awwww ...
