Doctor Nose Best!

Today was nose surgery day. It went great. Thomas came with me and waited in recovery with me. It was actually not too bad. I'm doing fine now. I don't know what my nose looks like, because it has a hard plaster cast on it. But the doctor said that it was easy, not terribly badly hurt and went very smoothly. Yay me...

So... only two more surgeries to go.

I'm sorry I can't post pics, but for some reason, this blogging service doesn't have a mac compatible software, so I'm stuck until I find a way to get my PC running again... email me personally though and I'll send you some!

Nobody Nose the Trouble I've Seen

So it turns out that I will be having my nose "remolded" after all. They say things like "remold" to make you think of preschool, playing with clay, and other happy things. They don't say, we're going to break your nose again, and then stuff it with plastic and put plaster on the top... No... That might scare people off. I don't know exactly when yet I will have my nose "remolded" I just hope it will turn out looking more or less like it did before. The doctor does promise I will be able to breathe better... which would be key, as thats what noses are apparently for.

Other than that, I have gone back to Elementary school. I am currently working as the substitute media assistant at a local elementary school. You'd think that with my own current lisp, I'd be better at understanding theirs. But I'm still having some trouble decifering students' pronunciations of their last names... And there are always a few who don't understand me, and can't figure out what question I'm asking them. Not one has asked me about my missing tooth however. I can only assume that they think it fell out, I put it under my pillow, and the toothfairy came. Soon enough a new one will grow back, at least that's what they're probably thinking.

Anyway, that's my life these days. Thomas comes on Thursday, and I'm sure that will shake up my schedule a little... but we'll see!
