I feel I need to steal the phrase "I saw Jordan Catalano's band!" and that it was a night filled with "EMOSEWA!" entirely from [livejournal.com profile] jlh. All bands were good, all drinks were better and aside from getting snubbed by a shlub the crowd was brilliant!

It was also completely fucking harrowing and redefining my swaying standard between bad-ass and in-fucking-sane. After a little curbside ballet, Pepsi and I took a spill.

I tell people all the time, I fall down. It's not something I like but it is something I do and it's quite a thing. Never so much as when I kissed the curb and came back with no front teeth. Clio was good enough to rather delicately point this out, much to my boy's amusement.

[It is entirely the boy's fault by the way, because he jinxed the evening before we left the house, not once but twice. There were also some off-color American History X jokes to do with curbside violence on the subway ride there. I pretty sure by the end of the evening I was the least surprised by it all... My poor teeth though, this is actually very much my childhood reoccurring nightmare realized. I cabbed it home, gave direction, showered, changed, had a good ten minute cry and then cleaned the plaque of my teeth with an exacto-knife before reinserting it. I mean, I sort of had to because it's that sort of plaque that you seriously never would have reached otherwise. I know I scared the shit out of the boy, sitting there, face cut, gapped tooth and wielding sharp things like a medic, but it beats the alternative. Freaking the fuck out, which I had every right to do, but opted not to. I want god damn brownie points]

Very many hours of reconstructive surgery, with not nearly enough pain killer and certainly a less than accommodate recuperating environment [a month of soft foods and bed rest yet as it is, I'm home doing a months worth of laundry, mopping and changing cat litters >_<] I've got front teeth again a split-lip and a club story that out does most. Oh, also, they were shaved a littler shorter to accommodate cracking so it make my canine's more pronounced. Wicked.

Another Club Note: it's been years but it's still weird to think of the limelight as anything other than the limelight. Avalon's a neat name and all, but it's still the limelight. I mean come on it's the church... what if they reopened the bank proper, it'd still be the bank, you know...although to be fair, that's because it was once an actual Bank. NY is weird.

[livejournal.com profile] tier_luren is here. We've got the whole visiting dying relatives planned, for which I have painkillers [god-bless] and the ulterior motive of stealing the hospitals supply of face masks. Sometime soon, I've got to return to the optometrist so I can stop being goddamn blind. Then back to the dentist to have the other tooth, you know the botched root canal, looked at again, because I'm not nearly having enough turmoil or melodrama in my life lately. God knows.

I'm thinking of taking up juggling knives, just to spite my rising bad karma.

Edits: Crap. Never mind. The other brother is due presently. *kills self*

God. Clio told me this story and I was most impressed that you remembered milk. V. impressive, v. cool head under pressure, all that.

*sends you pudding, jello and those little marshmallow peeps things for, uhh, seasonal comfort*

I am a queen under pressure. it's this whole bedrest and soft foods things that's going to kill me. Although I am growing a new love for peeps...and chocolate Jesus.

Stuff like that is very high up on my fear list-I don't enjoy thinking about teeth or them breaking, things happening to them. I think it's because of all the years of CRAP I put them through, in terms of metal stuff.

I would definitely have not been as calm as you. I can almost guarantee I would've passed out. So hurrah, glad everything is fixed, and are your teeth still as strong as they were? Like...can you bite in to apples and stuff? *is curious*

From: [identity profile] bhanesidhe.livejournal.com


A bridge had to be created behind my two front teeth to support them while they mend. So, strong is not a word I would use. In fact, I am feeling VERY fragile. I wouldn't even trust myself with toast. I'm starving, all I've had to eat since Thursday night is lentil soup and oatmeal. By this time tomorrow I expect my stomach to have turned inside out.

Worst part is, this is just the beginning. If the procedure didn't take, and the root in my front right tooth doesn't catch or close over than I have to get it pulled anyway and get a false one created. I've got a whole month of freaking out over it ahead of me *squirms*

Lossing teeth is the actually the thing highest on my fear list. I've had nightmares about it my whole life. Just having them fall out, not even the pain... I can handle pain, but just looking in the mirror and being helplessly deformed. I still feel that way even though I look vastly better now than I had 24-hours ago.

God I wasn't sure I'd make it through the whole entry. I felt squemish just reading about it!

Poor you *hugs* and eek!

From: [identity profile] bhanesidhe.livejournal.com


Aw, that's just cuz you're a delicate flower, ain't ya. no worries, babe. I'm not made of brick and mortar, but I'm not made of glass either. I am awful hungry though... =_=

From: [identity profile] muldr4scly.livejournal.com


Me? Delicate? *does macho look* ok no...your right, I am a wee bit, when it comes to squemish stuff.

...And girl you gotta eat! Porridge?! Soup? Something. Eat!

From: [identity profile] will-2001.livejournal.com


Oh snap! I hope you feel better soon. Did they give you a prescription for percoset or something. When I got my wisdom tooth yanked in Spetember I was given a prescription for percoset in case there was any pain. I never used it.

When I was hanging out with Sue she said she'd like to hang out with you some time again.

From: [identity profile] bhanesidhe.livejournal.com


Ah, this whole reply make me so sad. no my meds are not so good as that, but that's because they're worried about the interaction with the high dose of anti-biotic I'm on. It's isn't brain-numbingly painful but 1) I have a high threshold for paint and 2) the combination I am on leaves me pretty loopy and out of it as it is. I've slept more in the last two days than I think I have in the last two weeks.

I'm one day into this treatment. I can't believe I have to do this for a month. I already feel insane for it. I've no clue when is the next time I'll be able to "hang out" with anyone, anywhere doing anything worth while. with the exception of an impending funeral. T_T

From: [identity profile] will-2001.livejournal.com


I didn't mean to make you sad but hey, new Placebo next week and new PJ next month. Maybe that will make you feel better.

From: [identity profile] rhrevah.livejournal.com


What a story. That has to be one of my biggest fears is losing my teeth. I know a girl who had hers knocked out with a glass and ever since then ive tried to keep extra care of them, admitedly its kept me in debt with braces that i havent paid for just yet but ill get around to it. If i ever croke beofore my time my teeth are yours to with as you pease, s my wrists are too, but hey sharing is caring :D

All I can say is that with or with out teeth im sure you shine true with looks


From: [identity profile] bhanesidhe.livejournal.com


That is such a funny thing to say, not that I don't appreciate you saying it. I've just never been very happy with my looks, just sort of settled on them. I think part of this is sort of good for my ego though, because this is the worse thing, the absolutely worse thing I could have ever imagine for myself, and if I can get over this I can get over anything.

From: [identity profile] ali-wildgoose.livejournal.com


I heard about this from Clio while I was out of town...WAH! YOUR POOR ICKLE TEETH! O_O

However, infinite badassery points have been added to your scorecard, which is never an entirely bad thing.

*offers squishy yogurt*

From: [identity profile] bhanesidhe.livejournal.com


ah, clio, all about the stealing my thunder. To be fair, my teeth were never all that ickle, but I would have preferred another means to lessen their stature.

*downs yogurt*... dude, I can't remember ever being this hungry, like whoa...

:: ah! ::


That sucks about the teeth, dudette. I am most utterly bummed for you and your lacking ability to process food above jello/(nonchunky) soup grade. My stomach feels sad.

On a hopefully happier note, do you think being in NY for the July 4th week would be a good time for you?

From: [identity profile] bhanesidhe.livejournal.com

Re: :: ah! ::


My stomach feels sad too. As it is I never eat much to begin with, you never want food so much as when you can't have it. T_T


July is a good month for visits, as it is I have all of nothing planned, not accommodating for seasonal NYC heatwave.

From: [identity profile] amegoddess.livejournal.com


Oh no! Man, that sucks. I hope they take and you're not being driven out of your mind with soft food. Snicker and somehow I know a comic just for this type of situation...

I feel I should tell you that was appropriately upsetting. I flinched when he hit the floor, but I think I'll flinch when anybody hits the floor for the rest of my life. I'm still terrified of a numbers of things she's confronted already, wonderful poking, proddings and x-rays I still have to look forward to.

But I appreciate it though, very well timed satire, and if I can't laugh at myself, well then what's the point. You're right, it's perfect.
