Also Anand's teacher was impressed to see that he was walking already. Walking! Now I actually have to find him shoes every morning. This morning he wore these Robeez fox knights, which are so insanely adorable I might melt. Tomorow, I think the Robeez little aliens Mirna bought him.

Goal: Writing every weekday morning, and finished draft ready for Bob by end of September. Let's see how it goes.
My only other thing to accomplish today is take care of my aching jaw. It started hurting on Friday, and the pain seems to be centered on my bottom right wisdom tooth. The one that's growing in sideways. I'm guessing it's a) impacted, b) infected, or c) both. Sigh. Taking my wisdom teeth out has been on my to-do list for a year; I guess it just moved up to the top. Any sense of how long it's likely to knock me out for?
I have an appt. with a general dentist, Dr. Yee (who had fabulous reviews on Yelp and has an office three blocks from my house), at 2 p.m. today; he says he can recommend someone to do the procedure, if he agrees it's necessary. Joy. I think he does kids as well; if he seems good, then Kavi will be coming in sometime soon; I gather at age 3, it's time they start seeing a pediatric dentist, yes? We are not super-diligent about brushing/flossing in this house (well, Kevin is, but not the rest of us), so I am anticipating a scolding or two. Sigh.
I had a friend who, the day she had her wisdom teeth out, was eating lasagne (the salt didn’t seem to bother her at all), and the next day she was eating steak.
I, only other hand, was flat on my back for a week, obtaining successively stronger drugs until they finally gave me Demerol.
So I’d say that’s what you can look at as the range of recovery time. 😉
