My nose is numb

This doctor did a great job of making sure I was numbed up today. As a matter of fact, the lower part of my right eye and my right nostril are STILL numb.

During the procedure, I had visions of the Bill Cosby skit of him talking about being at the dentist and the smoke coming out of his mouth. My dentist did the shaking-jiggling thing as he numbed me up. He re-numbed me later in the procedure and I didn't expect it and wondered, briefly, if he was suffering from palsy. But, I figured it out. *whew*

I do have a newfound sympathy for my mother after she had her stroke. I can't speak clearly and I can feel (as much as I can feel right now) that my lip is dangling there out of my control. It is a very helpless and frustrating feeling.

I also can't say the word "filter" right now. Comes out totally screwed up. I imagine this will only get worse - painwise - as the numbness wears off.
