As far as my condition, the severe pain of my abscess is gone, but I am still completely exhausted from it and my face is still swollen, my right eye being kind of black. I went to the dentist today and he was going to take out my stitches (where I got the thirty plus shots of novocaine) but my mouth was just too swollen, so I'm waiting a week. We'll also see what we're going to do with my other bad tooth.

I do hope it's clearing up and not hurting any longer.

The ones you haven't seen, in that list, that I reckon are worth the effort, are:

Chicken Run
Blood Simple: Director's Cut
Best in Show
Lagaan
