Surgical what?

Thursday, November 9th, 2006

So I went to the dentist today.  I had a little bubble of nasty on my gums next to an unfinished root canal I had done a couple of years back.  Turns out the tooth had rotted all the way down to the bone in the center, and only the outside of the tooth and the roots were left.  The dentist had to take out the tooth ruins, and then excavate to extract the roots.  It was not fun.  Right now I feel like Jack’s bleeding gums.  I wonder if I’ve swallowed a pint of blood yet.

My yarn came, and that was enough to keep me happy for awhile.  It’s not an exact match, not really close anyway, it’s mostly red and orange, with some yellow, and all of the colors are much brighter than the yarn I have.  I could have bought a sugar maple skein, and you probably wouldn’t be able to tell the difference.  Oh well.  I’m having a hard time deciding if I’m going to knit up the second sock entirely from the new skein of yarn, (and throw my cares of matching them out the window, at least they’ll both be red,), or making it from the original skein, and then picking up with the new skein when I’ve run out.  Maybe I should just make three socks, the one I have, one entirely from the new skein, and then one with a little bit of both.  Then I could wear either one with the two skein sock, or the mismatched ones together. ..

Oh hell I dunno, I’ve got a while to think about it though, I’ve got to finish my dad’s sweater and Rob’s other sock before I can go back to the Jaywalkers.

Yesterday I bought clothing on the internets.  I hope everything fits, it should, I got the pants all in extra long sizes.  I probably shouldn’t have spent that money, but whatever, I still went to the dentist, and all of my bills are paid current.  I shouldn’t feel guilty for spending some of my money on clothing when I have a little bit of it to spend.

Next month is christmas though.  I’m probably not going to go all out with presents this year.  Just get some stuff for Rob and send cards to everyone else.  I dunno.
