So it turns out that on day 3 of the wisdom teeth removal process your cheeks are actually puffier than they were on days 1 and 2. Well maybe that is just in my case, but if it is at all possible my cheeks are visibly rounder than they were when I went to bed last night. Last night as I was getting ready for bed and swishing that lovely prescription mouthwash around, I had a realization, an epiphany, a eureka moment if you will- I dont look like a chipmunk (mostly because I dont have a tail), but what I do look like is a person in a fat suit. You know like in the movies when they turn a skinny person into a fat person, that is what my cheeks look like. So today i have decided since my mouth hurts so much (way worse than it did right after the surgery or even yesterday) I am just going to sit in my bed and work on my project, no need to get dressed (although yes I did take a shower), someone drilled into my mouth, cracked out 4 teeth, and now there is swelling, I can be just as productive in my bed as I can be at my desk, plus it is cozier here, and when the medicine finally kicks in and dulls the pain I wont have to come back here to take a nap... because I will already be here! Great plan!
See how round! This is looking scary.

I hope it didn't take long for the medicine to take effect!
And, actually...you don't look bad! I looked way worse...but there are no pictures to prove it :-)
I'm sorry your cheeks are giving you such a hard time.
