three items of interest (to me anyway)
1) tonight i experimented and made some specialty kraft mac and cheese - parmesan alfredo flavor. my back up plan was to blend it up with some milk to drink but i had another idea in mind: tasting some solid food! i was able slide in one or two macaroni pieces between my teeth at a time, mash it with my tongue against the roof of my mouth, and then swallow. it was absolutely fantastic tasting and my stomach was very happy. technically i should be on a liquid diet through december 9 (6 weeks from surgery) but the reason for the liquid diet is to keep me from chewing and overusing the jaw. so i think it is ok i cheated because i wasn't chewing. :)
2) i was doing my over-curious googling again and found that the procedure to remove my screws is done without anesthesia (no general nor local) and using a SCREWDRIVER. whattttttt. nasty nasty. i will endure this barbaric act on friday.
3) in better spirits and in less pain today. if you sent me positive vibes, it must have worked!
