Sleep Overtook Me

My oral surgery went well today. I wasn't totally crazy and hallucinatory on the anesthetic this time. My pain med nausea only lasted a couple hours.

But what really made today so much better than what it could've been was a little show called Lost and, much more importantly, a little program called Skype. After conversing with Caitlin for over two hours, we both skyped Eli. We laughed and played videos and fell back into our short summer friendship with ease. We decided to go on a double date, Caitlin with her Tooele man and Eli and I on our second date. We might go to the zoo. I haven't been to a zoo since I was 11 or 12, and the thought of being there with one of my best friends and one the craziest men I've ever met fills me with this hope that adulthood won't suck so bad and maybe someday I will have a man of my own, even if he lives far away from.

I'm growing up. I can handle things. I can go to the zoo.
