Actually, I still have most of them, just got three out.

i'm surprisingly . . . awake. It's been somewhere around a half hour or less since I woke up from the anestesia and i'm feeling more awake than i did when i went in. Noting, that I was pretty much dead when I went in.

It was really weird. They gave me laughing gas first and that got me completely disconnected from my body. Kinda felt like my essense was completely detatched and spinning to the left. The only connection I retained with my body was the thing that took my blood pressure, the pulse thing on my index finger, and sometimes the four things they had around my wrists and ankles.

When I came too I was speaking German. Except since i never learned the word for "weird" I was saying "Ich hatte (or haben, dont' remember exactly) eine sehr weird traum." I even remember speaking to myself in German seeking the German word for weird. Oh, and that says "I had a very weird dream." And it was weird.

Seemed almost as if i wasn't completely under while they were doing the surgery. I remember whisperes of voices. There was a lot of counter clockwise spinning, that much is clear. While I was coming to I remember the guy who put me under and some woman were talking to each other, can't remember about what exactly though.

Me and my insane German psycobabble. He asked me what I was saying, the first thing in English that I said since I woke up was "It's German." Then i think he said something about being in Germany for a couple of years and I replied that I'd been there for a month, but I'm not sure if I was awake or not when he said that, i just remember it and I can presume it happened.

It was odd getting up from the chair, my eyes were wide open and I was rather awake, if completely detached from my body and all sensation. We walked out, he told me to watch the curb, I said something like "I can see it, no worries" and made it to Mom's car. "Watch your head." I think I replied with something, but I'm not sure. Needless to say, I didn't hit my head.

From there we went to Jamba. Mom called in and asked me what I want. Mango-A-go-go with Fro-Yo and rasberries, yes, good stuff, ate half of it not to long ago.

Mom was rather surprised that I was so awake, though, granted, anything aside from the present seems to be fading into a dream, must be the aftereffects of the gas. She says that I beat out both Tye and Angi, hurra! I do really good with anesthesia!

Haven't thrown up yet, I see that as a good thing, getting used to the sensation of numbness, as before I was so disconnected that I didn't even notice the numbness.

Somewhat annoying because it feel like I have snot or something encrusted under my left nostril, but it's actually just numb. I'm numb all the away back to my ears, heck, my left ear is numb. My cheeks are also numb and the majority of my tongue is numb (I can only taste so much, but I was still able to enjoy my Jamba). Chin is also numb and on the left side I'm numb up to just below my left eye. Speaking of my left eye, it's no longer red. Either it was something in the gas or it's just deciding to retreat because I just got my teeth yanked.

I'm surprised that I"m actually so awake and aware. I need a blanket though, feel cold.

I'm glad I'm taking this so well, I'd rather like to return to school on Monday.
