Bite Guards and Remote Controls

So I had to go to the Orthodontist this morning. I think I've mentioned this in a previous post somewhere along the way. Anyway, basically I have never-ending dental woes. Seriously. Last year around this time I had to have a tissue graft, I have cavities each time I go to the dentist, and now it seems that I have some teeth grinding/mobility issues. Which means a retainer. And a bite guard. I know that's hot, but backoff men ... me and my bite guard are married!

I felt like the biggest loser when I walked into the Ortho's office because I was the only one in the waiting room who was old enough to drive a car. Do old people still have braces and retainers and stuff? Or do they just move on to dentures? I guess I should just be grateful that I'm wasn't at the denture-maker's office.

Enough about that. I'm sure you're already making fun of me as it is so I'm not giving you any more material.

On a positive note, my remote control problems are all solved (thanks, RTR). So no more fighting with the neighbors! Don't be decieved though because that doesn't necessarily mean that my DVR problems are resolved.

Soooooooooooooooo. Those are my only major updates. This post would have been way better this morning when I had it in my head.

Oh! Wait! One more thing -- I'm watching Regis and Kelly right now (I DVR it every day) and she just made the comment that she only washes her hair every other day. How is this possible? There is no way on earth I could get away with that.

I am laughing out loud picturing you at the orthodontist waiting room with a bunch of kids. Did you entertain yourself with a "Highlights" magazine before your appointment? About the hair issue, I find it fascinating that so many women only wash their hair every other day. I don't understand how that works. If I tried to pull that, I would look homeless.

Yeah I don't get the wash every other day as well. I wonder if this works for people that have dry skin so maybe their scalps are dry as well. By the end of my second day I look like I shampooed with Wesson.

I haven't washed my hair since Tuesday! That is probably the only benefit of having horse hair like mine.

I can only picture you like Anthony MIchael Hall in 16 Candles when he wakes up in the back of that Rolls Royce

I think there are some people who are just marred with bad teeth. That sucks it happens to be you. Though the scene of you in a waiting room with zit-infested teenagers and preens is kinda funny...
