I'm getting bored with the foods I have. Any suggestions other than Jell-O, applesauce, and squash soup? I'm sure I could think of some, but I'm still a little brain dead from the drugs.
I'm also bored, but unable to talk (for the most part) or move (slightly dizzy) and I'm tired of movies and internet. Help would be SO appreciated!
Thanks.

Try some melon pops from Cool Classics they are sugar free but packed with flavor (this coming from someone who swore never to eat sugar free products) they are usually sold at any store but I get them from Food For Less plus the fact that they are frozen would ease some of the pain from getting your wisdom teeth pulled out just make sure you either just lick or use a spoon and eat the shavings but don't suck because the bleeding will worsen or reoccur.
Oh yeah as for the boredom try making home maid cards to give to your friends on birthdays special thanks and all those u can think of that way u will have tons of cards ready for when u need them and your friends will appreciate the fact that u took the time to make them. IF this doesn't work then have some fun with your family and milk the situation for all it's worth I had my mom get me this and that and my sister too I din't need most of the stuff I asked for but I could go on for hours asking for favors It was just so much fun to watch...

How about some pudding or yogurt? You could also make a smoothie with some fresh fruit. And of course, there are all kinds of soups out there besides squash. :)
As for boredom, have you tried reading or doing crossword puzzles? How about a craft like scrapbooking or cross stitch?
I hope you feel better soon! I was very fortunate to not have to deal with much pain or anything when I got my wisdom teeth out. I think I just slept a lot the first day afterwards and that was it.

Here are some suggestions for the food:
- Tomato gazpacho, as well as other 'cream' soups - cream of corn, cream of chicken, etc.
- Mashed potatoes.
- Oatmeal.
- Bananas.
- Yogurt, milk shakes, ice cream.
- Scrambled eggs.
- Pudding.
-Chili w/shredded cheese.
- Mashed tuna from a can.
Boredom:
- Even if you are tired of movies at home, try to get to the movie theater possibly with the help of a friend and get a slushee. It's more exciting.
Good luck!

Just kind of play it by ear according to your pain. Ice cream, yogurt, puddings, and frozen shakes(which have slightly melted). Are good ones to start with. Cottage cheese is also easy to eat, just be careful not to let any curds into your open tooth beds. Soon you should be able to have some lunch meats, such as bologna on very soft white bread. it is easy to chew and to swallow. Just be sure to stay away from things which require heavy chewing, and nothing that requires sucking, such as frozen shakes, peanut butter.

Oh you poor thing.
Has to be liquids, huh... lemme think... How about fruit juices? (http://www.healthrecipes.com/fruit_juice_recipes.htm) Cold soups? (http://soup.allrecipes.com/directory/1770.asp )
As for the boredom... do you have books on tape? Can you sit up? Maybe you can pick up some craft project like knitting or making bead necklaces.
