happy spring!

(I actually just posted this to my class blog and then had a freak out attack as I scrambled to delete it. Whoops.)

I'm sitting here with ice packs tied to my face alfafa-style and eating a mashed up cupcake with a spoon. Wisdom teeth surgery wasn't the big deal that I was expecting. It's possible that I am pushing it a little bit but I don't feel content just laying on the couch / in bed with a book or the tv or whatever. Normally that is my dream come true but suddenly when it is required and not just an option, I want to get up and go.

Pete offered to make the spring cupcakes so we spent the afternoon in the kitchen, him stirring up a bowl of icing and making my taste test it, me sitting with my crossword dreaming of lamb curry. Cupcakes are great, but I need protein, people. I've been eating apple sauce, pudding, yogurt and washing it all down with a few different pain killers. I can't open my mouth more than an inch wide and sudden movements make my face feel like it will explode. Other than that. No really, not that bad.

I feel like I should say something about the first day of spring but there isn't much to say. The few movements that I have been outside it has been raining horizontally at me. The sun is trying to shine though and I can randomly hear birds which makes it feel nice. I don't know. I'm just putting off my celebration of the season until I can enjoy it as it should be enjoyed, with grilled cheese sandwiches and slurpees (through a straw!).
