This evening, I had a terrible toothache and I was reminded of the Filipino joke where a foreigner would talk to a Pinoy and he will tell the foreigner, "Cannot speak toothache!" just to avoid speaking English. :)It was my first time to experience a veryyyyy painful toothache (sorry for the redundancy but have to double it for you to imagine how painful it is!) where no matter how I'd like to talk but I just couldn't because it was so painful.

Then after that, I even managed to joke with my Hubby and my friends and told them, "Now, I understand why they make toothache as an excuse for not spea

I kissed his eyelids, his eyes, wiped away the tear that had settled there at the corner, and wrapped his arms around me. "Matt? Promise me something?" He didn't want to talk to me anymore, he was upset, I was picking at the scab and causing us to fight over his soon to be absence again. "What?" "Just promise me that you'll come and see me anyway, even if I've got the boyfriends, and you've got a girlfriend so you don't need me anymore, just promise you'll see me anyway.

MENTAL STATUS: "Better". I still have jaw pain here and there and headaches from the tooth that's been the bane of my existence, but I'm hanging in there until the 26th.Yes, I'm doing better. I even managed to write a little. (After I was finished sulking)After a friend of mine saw my blog yesterday, he thought I sounded depressed. Did I? Ooops. I guess I did. Sorry to be Captain Bring Down for everybody.So he sent me this to cheer me up: ABBA song.It worked!I have to admit I really smiled when I saw this--and at the same time questioned whatever I had seen and liked about that group. But hey, I was young and their "Greatest Hits" cassette was my first to own.Even so, I had never heard of this song before. (Fortunately) But I think the words capture the profound meaning of this world and how we should be living it. Not.Anyway, enjoy. I did.(Thanks, Ed)
