Well.

Went to the dentist yesterday, as planned, for my wisdom-teeth-ectomy. That went about as well as could be expected. They let me bring my walkman, so Road Rage got me through it. The sedative they'd given me probably did its bit, too, but I really, really hated the disconnected feeling. Woke up this morning, and my face is so swollen I look like a chipmunk with full cheekpouches. Hurts like a bitch right now, too, and I can't take another painpill for an hour. *pout* On the other hand, rented the TFOTR DVD today, and spent the day browsing through the special features with Gypsy Rover. Also managed to work the blender enough to make myself a chocolate (Slimfast, as has actual nutritional value) and banana milkshake, and have been subsisting on that.

Also used the time to play with PaintShop and make myself a .gif Wall icon for my unhappy moments. Is it a bad sign when you're considering shelling out cash you don't have so you can have more LJ icons?

Have also done some thinking about Canada Day. The musician in Montreal is Remy 'Look, I sing the same words over and over in a silly falsetto and wear a funny hat so I must have soul' Shand. I am SO not going to see that.

Therefore, I'm thinking about popping down to the nation's capital for the day to see the Queen and whatever music they have there. The music cannot be worse, and I know for a fact there are cool folks in (or near) the nation's capital. Oi! Cool folks! (KcE, this means you, in case you hadn't figured it out). Fancy meeting me for lunch on Canada Day? I still owe you money, I know - can I ease some of that debt by buying you a meal somewhere?

Does my new icon not ROCK? (heh - pun not intended)
