What's so wise about wisdom teeth?

I mean, really.
I have four less teeth than I had earlier this week. While pain meds take away any discomfort or pain I have, I am consumed by the need for REAL FOOD. First day, it was pudding, ice cream, and a little bit of soup. And not nice, hot soup. No, it must be warm according to my printed instructions from the doctor's office. Today, things weren't as bad... I managed to DRIVE, I repeat, DRIVE myself to the nearest Kroger for real food. There was nothing but soft, sugary things in our house. And while, normally that would be like heaven (I mean, several chocolate pudding packs and a gallon of chocolate ice cream?!), but today I needed real food. Which I bought in the form of three boxes of Stouffer's mac and cheese, some Campbell's chicken noodle soup, and a packet of instant mashed potatoes. Don't judge me.
But what is so wise about these so called wisdom teeth..? I never saw them... and now they are gone, never to be seen...
I understand that they may be the last teeth to develop or grow in or whatever... But take my grandmother: She lived through World War II, the Cold War, all the other wars since then. I consider her a wise figure, I mean seeing the world as much as she did when she was a nurse in the Air Force. Yet, she claims she never had wisdom teeth. They just never showed up.
Now what exactly does this say about how people before named our teeth? Or other parts of our body for that matter?
... Don't even get me started on the funny bone...

Haha, well.. during my confinement to my room during my spring break (yea right... no break here.. only surgery... chhh), I have read through my latest Teen Vogue, three W's, and an Allure. Before I did go under "the knive" though, I did manage some shopping time, thank goodness for living in an actual city and not the city where my college is located... I bought a cute purple blouse (see-through, floral pattern) and a cream & navy striped high-waisted skirt, which I hope will be perfect and formal(ish) enough for an internship this summer!
WHICHHH, I am still looking for possible internship positions... To go along with my school scholarship, I need a paid internship that goes along with my major, which is English/Journalism. Crossing fingers for something with a magazine - that would be THE dream!

Ahhh, if only good dreams came true...
Hmmm, painkillers telling me to go to sleep ;]
Night!
