Today is Friday, May 14, the 134th day of 2010. There are 231 days left in the year.
So welcome to Friday. I awoke to thunder and SMS from the weather service. I headed into work w/o shower or brushing (had to do that at work). I came in fast because after a tornado in the metro everyone is “gun shy” and on edge with storms. I waited until Alan got in before I split to get food and snagged some chicken nuggets. Amazingly I just had to rip them in half and they were chewable. I guess I’m going to learn to cut things up to fit in my mouth. So far again today no one has noticed as of about 8:30.
So it happened.. I was standing over a co-worker talking and she noticed them. This person isn’t the one I think will spread the news but spent a bit talking about her 3x in braces and her past in them. I think others noticed or know because I had a few co-workers drop in just to say “hi” today. I had a DR. appointment I almost forgot but my phone reminded me with 15 minutes to get there in the pouring rain. I chewed a chunk of gum today and now my braces are really tight. I drank some ice cold water and my teeth felt like they were about to fall out. Not sensitive nor pain just loose feeling. I could wiggle them then just about 3 or 4 minutes it got tight again. I googled “heat & archwire” and found out they are heat activated and when it hits your mouth temperature it tries to go straight but when cold its pliable (sp?) and gets weak. Way cool however I now have a wire poking me at random times on the end of my brackets. I am tempted to put a blob of wax on it if it keeps up poking me. They say wires on the end is a good thing other than the poking because thats moving teeth. I say its to early to be moving them altho I do now have a new sizable gap in my front teeth so I guess they have moved some. My Doctor didn’t even believe I had braces on until I got up and showed her.. I love this clear concept. I’ll update later because I have not a clue if I’m doing anything tonight.
