Chomping.

At 2pm this afternoon, I’m having gum surgery. I’d ask you all to think good thoughts for me, but I’m not sure if I want to force you all to contemplate my gums. Besides, the dentist claims that this will be relatively painless and I am steadfastly attempting to believe him. He also claims that the only thing I won’t be able to eat for the next week or so is sandwiches. I’m still, however, preparing myself to consume a lot of smoothies.

I’ve decided to view this whole gum surgery business as a forced break from all of the running around that I’ve been doing lately. I have nothing planned for tonight except to lie on the couch, drink a smoothie and watch some stupid TV. And then, I’m taking the day off tomorrow and I’m not getting up from the couch unless nature calls or the house is on fire. And even then it’s negotiable.

I ate an apple with my breakfast this morning, just to eat crunchy foods while I still can. I haven’t decided what to eat for lunch yet. Maybe some taffy. Perhaps some biscotti. How about some broken glass?

Does anyone have any recipes for vodka smoothies? :p

    I hope that you’re feeling better today! I’m glad you have the day to recuperate. How about a vodka watermelon as a project for today? It’s cold, easy to chew, and requires you to roll it around to get all the liquid incorporated.
