Wisdom lost

Just had my right top wisdom tooth taken out. First one out.

I've been able to feel it for about a year. Never hurt, but I could feel the shape of it under my gums. I knew that if I left it it would eventually break through just like when we all teethed as babies. But instead of permitting this I went the traditional getting it taken out route, which just finished up less than an hour ago.

Here's the thing, I miss it. When I check all my teeth with my tongue (what! You never know when one might go missing, best to check every now and then) there is just a hole where that tooth used to be. I want it back. Maybe if I had kept it like they said I could I wouldn't miss it so much.

Change is good though, right? I'll just have to get accustomed to a lack of tooth again.
