My mouth is full of blood. And I can't spit it out, because it needs to clot over THE HUGE HOLE IN MY SKULL WHERE MY WISDOM TOOTH USED TO BE.

So far I have a side of my face so tingly and anesthesied that I'm not even sure whether i'm biting my tongue or not, and yet I can still feel the slight sting that's characteristic of "hey, look, there's a hole in your skin".

There's a hole in my SKULL. D: And if there's one feeling I HATE, it's the crunching, slightly screechy sound/feel of a tooth breaking. *shudders*

Also, my neck is so tense and full of knots I can barely touch my chin to my collarbone. I need to teach my mom to do massages, or something.


... comparatively speaking, it wasn't as bad as I expected. Now let's see if the clot forms properly. D:




edit several hours later: Okay, now it's hurting a bit. More uncomfortable ache that AUGH HOSPITAL, though. I haven't taken any painkillers yet, so if that changes, I can fix it easily. ^^

If whining and whinging make you feel better, go ahead! (If that encourages open mouthed breathing, doubly do it, salavia will slow down the clotting proccess so dry mouth=faster clotting.)

They are teaching us in class how to use our lower and core body strength to massage so we don't ruin our hands and get tired too quickly. We should be able to manage 8 hourish workdays in a spa when we graduate. (that's not to say we won't be Tired but...)

Unfortunetly I signed a leagally binding agreement that I would not massage anyone without supervision from a Licenced Massage Therapist--not even my family or friends. I could be kicked out if I do.

I'll get back to you on that deal in 18 months when I graduate and take the tests though. (fucking anatomy, nurology! WTF, really. On the other hand, Shiatsu, Swedish and one other massage modality of my choice, FTW!) n__n

In the mean time, knots are places where your musscles have tightened up (duh!) AND/OR (!!!) places where your fluids (blood, lymph, the intermembrane stuff..) have stagnated. So streach, do some mild exersize, and drink water.

What else..? Oh! If you can bully anyone into working on your limbs tell them to stroke/work towards your body. Veins are generally superficial to arteries and don't have the help of the heart to move the blood up against gravity and back to be refreshed.

And just to make you squirm and stare at your screen in yerning like you just read the best porn fic of your life: My off hand? Substainable five pound grip.
