The liquid diet sucks, but your mouth normally heals very quickly... I think it's because saliva has natural healing qualities (it's why we instinctively lick our wounds). You'll be munching garlic bread soon enough. And there are a lot of great soft foods you can enjoy in the meantime: ice cream, pudding, milkshakes...
General anesthesia really is that fast. There are stories of people being told to count back from 100. They say "99... 98... 97..." then a few hours of surgery, and they wake up and say "96... 95..."
Because it's Halloween, a macabre factoid... the lethal injection process uses the same drug to induce unconsciousness. If it's done properly, the prisoner literally never knows what hit him.
I'm glad everything went smoothly, and hope you get well soon. 😎
