dental work

tooth is gone.

Am home. Can't have beer with darvocet, so just taking advil until the other stuff is here. Had to go on strong antibiotics -- mood of late seems to have been an infection. My jaw wants me dead. Can't feel left side of face. Fear he tagged the nerve on the pull.

Da elf made me ravioli but made fun of me for how I ate it. Can't use a straw so my tea is cold. Was crying because my mouth tastes of tomato and blood, so elf squeezed a bear at me until the honey killed the acid. Orange blossom, I think. She is too good to me, and needs to be cannoned. Patron saintess of bees and cold tea, maybe.

My brain is upset, but maybe that's the lack of beer. I have a long weekend to recover, which is good, and the kids are home for the summer, which is good because I can give them chores like till the garden and wash laundry.

I want to start games nights soon. Who wants to come over and play board games on Wednesday nights? I might even share my honey.

shout out....

A bit shout out and thank you to photognome who invited da elf and I to join him and a few others to dress as pirates and see PotC-III a bit early last night. And, it was fun, even if I had to stare straight up Depp's nose a few times.

Story was good. I had no idea that they would pay homage to "Attack of the 50 foot woman", but I did like the short burst at the end of the credits that helped offset the nasty way the movie started. Disney fans, take note -- this is a standard Disney video so someone has to die in the first 10 minutes. It's gut-wrenching, even.

No more spoilers from me. Pacing was good, but a bit more exposition instead of action would have been welcome. Further clarity of the legends and effects could have replaced special effects without any loss, and in fact would have done a lot to make it a better film. The DVD, with some repairs like that, would be a welcome addition to our catalog here.

Now, if I could just get the pics our gnome took, I could get my batch of files ready to send to UtiliKilts! :)
