I'm about to go get my wisdom teeth out

Lis: You should blog something wise!
Ian: Why?
Lis: So you can compare before and after!
Ian: I thought it was so that, in the unlikely event that I die under the general anesthesia, my final post won't be my parents talking about octopuses taking over the world.
Lis: I thought you WANTED to be remembered for that.

Yep, so I'm off to the oral surgeon to get my wisdom teeth removed. I suppose there IS a non-zero chance that I'll die from this, but given that Dr. D'Eamero has taken the wisdom teeth out of, I think, THOUSANDS of people (including my sister and several of my cousins), under general and with no significant complications, I'm not THAT worried.

FWIW I thought the octo-post was pretty high in Wisdom, although it might have a low Constitution.

As to the wisdom teeth, be prepared for a sore jaw afterwards. Nothing horrible, its just that the docs have to keep your mouth open for a Very Long Time.
