Goodbye Wisdom Teeth, Hello Vicodin



It's a bloody, swollen state of affairs on the IGIF front today, as I had all four of my wisdom teeth pulled this morning. The procedure was something I'll never forget, but only because I'll never remember it either. Thanks to general anesthesia I was widsom teeth-full one second, and as I awoke from my drug-induced slumber I was wisdom teeth-less. It's sort of fitting in a way... as those tactless tertiaries were broken down into manipulatable chunks and then removed, my consciousness was none the wiser.

Now, as I sit with a head full of vicodin, a mouth full of gauze and a stomach aching of hunger, I'm left with only one source of satisfaction: my beloved music blog and the music that traverses its public corridors. Unfortunately I wasn't able to take my iMac with me on the road (just the PowerBook), so most of my music is AWOL. But I still would like to throw up a few songs for you all, so here's a mini-mix that follows today's events quite nicely (in chronological order):

[MP3] Pela - Tenement Teeth
[MP3] LCD Soundsystem - Tribulations
[MP3] The White Stripes - Bone Broke
[MP3] Arizona - Waking Up
[MP3] Panda Bear - Take Pills
[MP3] CSS - Music Is My Hot Hot Sex
[MP3] Frightened Rabbit - I Feel Better

I would have tossed up Peaches' "F**k The Pain Away" but, well, that wouldn't be representative of any sliver of truth. But maybe tomorrow...

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you get addicted to painkillers/overdose. Either way, maybe you'll stop subjecting people to your crappy taste.

ah, your title is absolutely genius!
My wisdom teeth grew in late and the other week i was suffering so much. Not only could i not eat, I could not even open my mouth more than a cm wide.

I couldn't even open my mouth to eat soup. Not even that wide. It was literally torture. I took a ton of pills and that didn't even help the tiniest bit!

Hope you're better!
