Bad Mouth

Yesterday I had my wisdom teeth pulled. They put me under, but thanks to the advice of my good friend Zoë, I asked them to save my teeth before the procedure. When I woke up, groggy and confused, I found my teeth in a little envelope taped to my shirt. And, because I was still fairly affected by the anesthesia, it was a hugely triumphant moment.

Then I got home and spent the rest of my day in bed, watching Billy Wilder movies and complaining about how badly my jaw hurt and how I couldn't eat anything crunchy.

So in honor of wisdom tooth extractions and good music, I give you Fugazi.
