Thank god I'm surrounded by wood to knock on.
Though, perhaps the Supreme Banishing Ritual of the Open Bar is what did it.

Nope. It's just

Well, on the bright side 2 down, 26 to go.
Wait. Shit. It's a leap year....

So the last day is going to be as bad as 4 days.
over the weekend, I had a wisdom tooth start coming in.
With rent due and 300 in the bank.
Fucking February.
Don't stress it unless it actually becomes a problem. I had room for all of mine, as did many other people I know. I think the whole "getting your wisdom teeth pulled is mandatory" thing is kind of a scam, though there are undoubtedly people who actually do need it done.
Yeah. The pain passed almost entirely today and when I skipped my consultation the dentist herself actually called back to leave a long message in a very serious, "you'll regret this!" tone, that the pain will come back. But she sounded angry, so it seemed odd.
They are all coming in perfectly sideways though, and my teeth aren't spaced out at all. If they push much further in, they're out.
I didn't get mine pulled until one of them was impacted (circa 2005? 2006?) And then I had all of them out in a go. When they need to come out, you'll wake up knowing when your gums are swollen and you start talking funny. So, assuming it was 05, I had my wisdom teeth for about 6 years before they became a problem.
I don't even remember when I got them. I have such a bloody hard time remembering things that happened before I was properly self aware.
My dad's birthday is today. I don't know whether he still has his wisdom teeth.
My uncle died on February first.
The girl who until recently was my girlfriend's birthday was yesterday. My brother's birthday is on the 26th. :horrormirth:
February has already gotten off to a blinding start. Eric Soares - the guy who singlehandedly invented big water sea kayaking got an aneurysm and died on wednesday.

I woke up this morning.
And there was SNOW. EVEYRWHERE
fuck yeah
aaaaaand. umm so far my knee's been healing quite excellently and I just regained the ability to ride my bike again which is nice because those bus tickets were getting kind of expensive.
anyway yes. that was LAST NIGHT. 2AM, how many years ago, was it 2009? another year that I'm fucking alive because two random awesome dudes started banging on my door cause the house was on fucking fire. weeeeoooo!

I got mine few days back. I got one out when it grew into my cheek. The others because my cheek-tooth xray showed my bottom ones basically going sidewise into all my other teeth.
I have to leave the Bahamas for a while and go back to that steaming dump of authoritarian 3rd-world-masquerading-as-1st-world turdloaf known as "America".
However, I'm not too broken up about that, because everything in my life is completely awesome because I work hard to make it that way. So fuck all this "OH ITS FEBRUARY WOE IS ME" nonsense.
I wouldn't expect such obvious large-scale Lo5-ing from this crowd.

I agree, my Februaries are usually pretty alright (not to rub it in or anything)

WHAT CAN GO WRONG?
Found out Feb 1st that my husband knocked up the town whore.
Am working my way from, "this is the worst thing ever" to, "that stupid jackass will be paying child support to that heifer until he's collecting Social Security." And, it struck me that I warned him this would happen before I even left his worthless ass.
Does it still hurt? Yeah... but not as much as it did, yesterday. Sunday, when I get to play with the baby of some friends, we'll see. (I love playing with the babies, then I have been known to go home and cry my eyes out because I always wanted my own.) I get through that, I will mark mysrlf down as at least mostly over it.
We will, assuming dipshit gets his act together, be filing for divorce in February.
I am feeling the need for some sort of epic troll on the NYEX, preferably either the day after the paperwork is filed, or Valentine's Day. Mulling ideas, suggestions are welcome.
Overall... February might be a little rocky, emotionally, but I think it's gonna be good for me.

And I wouldn't expect such blatant disregard for tradition from you, sir.
Now, get on the fucking stick and let's see some self-fulfilling prophecy, here.

Nope. I have decided.
February is going to be awesome. I hereby dump any and all bad bullshit anybody thinks I am gonna get due to it being February on whoever thinks the month is gonna suck. They can have it.
February rocks here. Had an awesome birthday dinner the other night - decided to drop a ridiculous amount of money in one night, so I took a bunch of people out to a steakhouse. Best meal I've had in well over a year.
At work, promotion's on the way. They haven't told me "officially" yet, but they have told me "unofficially" that I start on the 10th.
Decided to start dating again, and got a date lined up for next week.
I've been really careful with my money, and if all goes according to plan, I should be able to pay off my student loans in one bigass chunk next month.
Everything is turning up Cramulus!
FUCK YEAH!! Especially the promotion thing! I know how long you've been waiting for that one!!
Dad's birthday was in February.
If I work hard enough, I can forget all about it.
Back to work.

:sad:
Feb's pretty cool for me. If all goes according to plan, I will be getting a Governor's appointment to a commission next week, granted, it's THAT Governor. AND father-in-law is in town to watch the kids so the wifey and I can hit the town for some adult time.
I got a letter on the 1st saying that I now have 100% coverage for outpatient care at OHSU for the next six months, and the only things that are not covered are elective procedures so for all significant purposes I have complete no-expense health care.
Aced my math exam in 45 minutes today. Found out on Thursday that as of now I am getting a B in the class that I was worried about.
My student loan disburses on the 8th and that will cover my mortgage for 2 months.
Found a pair of much-needed waterproof boots from my favorite brand, normally $330, on sale for $136.
My son made tacos for everybody tonight.
Tomorrow I'm spending time with my favorite Space Duet and their dog.
Life ain't easy but so far, February isn't so bad.

I'm sorry, LMNO.
That's hard.
*big hugs for LMNO*
and Nigel that sounds pretty good! Especially the healthcare thing (the elective procedures aren't until November anyway) and the tacos!

I wonder if I can get the country a double monopolistic-capitalismectomy in November?
