Gone



At 9:15am on Wednesday December 16, 2009, i had my 4 wisdom teeth removed. It went rather well - i was at work 90 minutes later. Showed up with blood on my face and couldn't talk for hours, but no one at work seemed surprised by those details. 4 days later and i'm still doing quite well.

I once asked a dentist why we need our wisdom teeth out and he said that it is because our food is too clean. In earlier times we ate a lot more sand and grit, which polished our teeth and wore them down to such an extent that there was plenty of space for the wisdom teeth. I took to eating a little sand when I could.
