The Countdown Begins: 8 Days Until My Jaw Surgery

And I can’t wait. I’m trying not to get myself too psyched up because then time just becomes unbearable.  The plans for this surgery have been in the works for nearly nine years, and now, the realization that this is actually happening is mind boggling.

Sure, my face will be so swollen and I probably won’t go out in public until school starts.  Hell, my face will probably still be swollen by then.  But I really don’t care. 1 month of misery versus a lifetime of bliss.
