I don't really know what possessed me to let the dentist pull a wisdom tooth while I was still recovering from my cold, but hey, at least it saves me the trouble of paying for a second set of antibiotics. It was growing into my cheek and probably causing this weird shooting sensation whenever I stomped my feet, so it seemed a good idea to remove it. The dentist said it was a very easy extraction and it certainly felt easy though I mostly consoled myself with what I'd have had to go through for dental care in earlier centuries... Anyway, it doesn't really hurt, though it does bleed a lot. I took a couple Tylenol this evening and took half of a Tylenol with codeine for sleep even though I'm not sure if I'll need it.
I had half a day of work today and it was probably a good thing since I came home, attempted to contact Rutgers East Asian language department for the third time, took a shower, then dozed in my bed for a few hours (I couldn't get completely to sleep since I'd wake up to sniffle so my nose didn't get plugged up and force me to breathe through my mouth). I don't like napping the afternoon, but I was so tired and I'm still tired now so I doubt it made much difference. The cold was getting better, but seems to have plateaued since I didn't feel any better today than I did Monday. I wish my ears would stop hurting and the gobs of phlegm seemed worse today though the cough was better, but there's still five more days for the antibiotics to work, so here's hoping.
Tomorrow, I have the day off. So I will attempt to contact Boston University's arch. grad. advisor, and rest up until my lifeguarding class in the afternoon which will last for who knows how long. Hopefully the cold and wisdom tooth (or, you know, the exhaustion) won't cause problems with the swimming... Dear god, I am a masochist, aren't I?
