Dancy Dancy continues

Another night with my charming dancing ladies

( dance geekery )

And... I sure did mean to write about the Palio

( Il Palio de Carolignia )

Open wide

Well... I should probably mention - tomorrow is Oral Surgery Day. Tonight I do homework. I chose anathesia, so no eating after midnight tonight. Appt. is for 10:15 tomorrow. Not sure how long I'll be offline. Needless to say, any posts from me on Wednesday will be bleary at best, but probably non-existant. Have lots of New England Soup Factory Soup - including a fabulous Turkish Honey Apricot that is really more dessert than soup, which is new to me - I've never seen the Soup Factory do dessert soups before.

I'm not too awfully scared. Scared comes with a feeling of uncertainty - "I am scared of being eaten by that lion" - implies that the lion might eat you, but might not. I am not scared because I know exactly what will happen - I will go to sleep and I will wake up groggy with a funny-feeling mouth. My mouth will hurt for several days, I won't be able to eat much, and then it'll be tender, and then it'll be OK. In way I'm hopeful - I hope I will be marginally functional (if grumpy and ouchie) for part of tomorrow, so I can do some quiet things I've been wanting to do - like sew cholis, write choreographies, and write web pages. But I hope I still feel shitty enough Thursday to justify staying home, so I don't have to go to the office and feel yucky.
