Last Night

11.30pm - go to bed. Take night meds, include painkillers for toothache.

12.30am - going insane with toothache. Smear orajel over teeth.

1am - do three Buddhist pain management meditations.

1.30am - smear orajel over teeth and gums.

2am - getting insaner. Pain pain pain!

2.30am - cry.

3am - run a bath, get in the bath, hope the heat will soothe and relax. It doesn't.

3.45am - google 'pain management'.

4am - smear orajel over teeth and gums.

4.15am - cry.

4.30am - get the instruction manual out for the brand new microwave, learn how to use it. Heat up wheat bag.

4.45am - slight relief from the heat of the wheat bag! Yey!

5.30am til 6am - SLEEP!

6am - wake up throbbing, agony, argh. Count down til 7am painkillers.

7am - painkillers. While it's a relief to take them, realise that it'll be another 45 minutes til they have any effect, which they didn't last night.

7.30am - cry. Smear orajel over teeth.

8am til 11am - listen to radio, try not to cry, moan, groan or rock.

11.30am til 1pm - SLEEP!

1pm - bastard evil bastard evil electricity meter reader wakes me up by ringing the bell incessantly.

1pm til now - ouch, yuck, grim, tired, pain, ARGH.
