J-E-L-L-NOOOOO

Sometimes you really don't realize how important your body parts are until they're no longer able to be used. This Monday morning I had two wisdom teeth pulled, and while I feel like I've been a trooper, I am desperate to remember the feeling of what it's like to chew normally. My front teeth are hopelessly trying to work double time, both biting and chewing but just aren't doing the job those big guys in the back of my mouth normally pull off.

I've been eating jello, ice cream and mashed potatoes galore! While this may sound like an ideal diet, I am dying to eat food with a crunch and some substance. Until then, its warm salt water rinses, plenty of tylenol and mushy meals.
