man - i really didn't appreciate the wide world of food till i was restricted to the liquid and mushy varieties. i don't wanna flood this forum with griping over my wisdom teeth getting removed, but i'd really like to be able to open my mouth more than an inch and eat real food soon. applesauce gets tired real quick, yo. and smiling and laughing hurt my jaw, so there's some more joy lost. talking with my mouth practically closed looks pretty funky, too, and it's kinda embarassing, working in retail ... all i gotta say is, if i can't eat candy on halloween, shit's gonna get ugly .
