Pain and WalMart

[jeweledvixen]

For about a week now my one tooth has been hurting. It's broken off at the gum line and has been for several months. But it hasn't hurt me at all until just now. It's almost 6am here and I still haven't been to bed because I'm in too much pain. I've been living on aspirin and sleeping for four or five hours at a time, but it is getting worse and now I'm pretty sure it's infected. It hurts to touch my cheek. The whole right side of my head hurts, from my nose around to the back of my head. I have an appointment with my doctor on Tuesday and a dentist's appointment on Wednesday. I'm going to talk to my doctor on Tuesday and see if I need X-rays and an antibiotic.

So, while I was awake and not able to sleep, I decided to go to WalMart and do my grocery shopping. It was about 2:30am and it was great. There was almost no one else in there, although I was surprised by the number of people who were in there. The only problem was that they were doing major shelf stocking and they had palettes of stuff all over the place, so sometimes it was hard to get down an aisle, but other than that, it was fantastic. I may do my shopping in the wee hours more often.

Now, if I could only get some sleep. *sigh*
