art & stories 11.0

i dont think i ever shared this story???

warning for mild descriptions of surgery stuff

but yeah a few years back i got my tongue clipped (for the 2nd time, i got it clipped when i was born too)

i had to get up super early to go to the hospital, so that sucked, but my god hospital rooms are freezing

like yeah i know that its to keep germs out or something but its super cold and i remember it being like blinding white????

i was out for the actual surgery tho, and being put under anesthesia is kinda freaky??? like this guy in surgical gear just leans over you like "ok, count back from 10" and then youre out

then i just sorta woke up in a room with a blanket and stitches in my tongue (i actually got to keep the blanket so that was cool)

at one point a nurse came into the room to take out my iv and i remember her being like "hey you might wanna look away" but no i watched her yank the iv out of my arm

but yeah then i went home and had to spit out stitches for like a month bc i got the dissovable kind

thats the story of the time i got my tongue clipped
