Dental woes have turned me into a Phantom

So I finally had that back tooth pulled. Maybe someday I'll win the lottery and get an implant. Ha.

It was my own fault, but really I wasn't planning on needing my teeth, or living that long.

Long story short, Peanut did very well at his first training at the Dentist office, I got laughing gas which helps sooooo much, and I didn't need the Valium b/c I had Peanut. Tooth pulled, Hydrocodone taken every 4 hours to keep me asleep/ away from the miserable pain I felt when I had this tooth absess last year. I finally locked that pain away away so let's keep it that way.

I did sleep through/forgot to take my meds yesterday and didn't realize it till I woke up from really terrible nightmares. I was in this experiement but when I found out I was in it I just got trapped back in but it was worse b/c I knew but I couldn't get out/wake up. Also I had to keep going back to that rapist's house. I think I was enumerating there (in my dream) the address was something 254? 18254? -251? Now I can't remember. I had to tell my supervisor over the phone- she called to make sure I had completed an interview for that address. I think the respondent refused. I may have had to talk to him but I think his Dad was home and his Dad usually tells him to let me go. The experiment part of the dream was far more intense, and I've blocked out most of it, but when I figured out it was an experiment, they showed me rooms. One with people testing on rats; one with rats testing on humans; and one table that had us all, the whole building/area of the testing all in scale. All the sudden I was the scale tiny me, and I took the opportunity to escape. I knew from being large me that I could climb off the table and out of a window. I think I made it outside into a tree but was captured and brought back. Possibly to school/transition to finishing school nightmare.

Now I will let the nice pain killers over take me, and sleep with this ice pack strapped to my face, which makes me look like the Phantom of the Opera.
