The last post I made in here, how there’s some things that make me envy of people with a life. There’s also things I’m glad I’m not a part of; taxes. Yet there’s also a thing I can’t avoid; bill increases.
Namely, Time Warner Cable. Less than a month until I get this supposed 200MB speed upgrade, and they’re already jacking my bill up! I normally pay $65.33 a month for my 30MB package. Now all the sudden, the bill has jumped $15.36 to $80.69. The reason, is the modem lease fee has gone up (because they can), and what kills me is “we noticed you weren’t part of this”….which makes me want to say to them “why couldn’t you had FUCKING IGNORED ME?!?!” Bastards!
The other reason is the promotional period I was on (that kept my bill low), had expired. They managed to get me on a cheaper plan and got my bill down to $70.69, good through this time next year.
What’s cringe-worthy is, I know there’s no way in hell this new $70 bill isn’t going to pay for the new 200MB upgrade next month. Yet they assured me that it will cost nothing for this upgrade, and my bill will not go up. Well, my bill DID go up, because they found out “Ohh.. you weren’t paying out the ass! Let us fix that!”. Yet they can see it as “your bill didn’t go up because of the upgrade. We never said it would never go up!”
Again, bastards! ….. Still, this upgrade will pay for itself. So I shouldn’t be bitching about it.

There is another concern. A concern in my mouth. Nearly a week ago, I had more teeth removed. Typically, my gums will heal up in less than a week. This time…they aren’t. They’re still as swollen as they were on the day I got them taken out.
What’s also bugging me, is feeling a small’ish bump on my inner nerve (next to my tongue) that’s about an 8th of an inch tall. On Day 1 through Day 2, it used to be as tall as a tooth. But it shrunk down to that…it just won’t go away.
Was prescribed antibiotics, and told the swelling should go down in two weeks. First week’s going to hit tomorrow, and no change in the swelling.
I feel the dentists that extracted my teeth, failed me. Because I feel a sharp thing sticking out of my gums on the other side of the bulge. I originally assumed it was the blood clot, but now I feel it’s a piece of tooth/bone they forgot to remove. Could also be a piece of food. Yet if it was food, it would had been dislodged by now from the constant salt water washing I’ve been doing. I also would be able to wiggle it.
So it’s not food. It’s a piece of the remaining tooth or bone they forgot to remove.
And if my gums don’t heal by the 25th (which will be two weeks), I’m going to go see another dentist. This one will be within walking distance, so I won’t have to get my parents involved.
Yet the strange thing about this, all of the other inflated gums that aren’t related to the piece of tooth.. aren’t healing. Maybe everything is attached to this one piece of tooth. I dunno. I just wish my gums would heal and I wouldn’t have to concern myself with it.
