Bleeding

I had my wisdom teeth out almost 2 weeks ago. I got bold today, and tried some more solid food. Bold and stupid. My mouth started bleeding at 7:20pm. It's still bleeding, just a little, as of 3:10am. It's hardly been much blood, but I've been keeping gauze on it, to stop it getting any worse.
I was supposed to go out at 7:30, but that didn't end up happening. I really thought it was going to stop in time. If I had more control over getting home I would have just gone for as long as I could manage without getting blood on everything and lived with the fact that my speech was muffled by having gauze in my mouth. It was going to be my first social outing since November, and it was stopped by my own stupidity.
I already ate dumb food too soon a few days ago, and that ended up bleeding so much that I went in to the Emergency room at 4am because we thought the stitches had come out. You think you'd learn from that. You think you'd be careful, at least cooking a meal an hour before you're supposed to go out for the first time in over a month.
So far my social record for 2015 is one friend cancelling on me, and now this. I might have something next week. Other than that I should probably actually leave the house or something. Maybe.
