Had my first ever general sedation today for a wisdom tooth removal and the only thing I can compare it to was like a real life video game upgrade interstitial (screen goes dark, sounds of air guns and ratchets, screen comes back up).

Saw our first urban fox while taking the dog for her evening walk - it looked healthy but kept a decent distance from us. Then a rat ran past and it chased after it.
