I made it to my orthodontist appointment this morning and this is the end result. So far it hasn't been "bad" at all. I don't feel awkward like I thought I was going to other than eating lunch. I wasn't a big sandwhich person to begin with, now I KNOW I won't be a big sandwhich person at all. That was pretty comical to me, now, my lunch date on the other hand may not have found it as funny but I sure did. By the end of lunch I had peeled the chicken/bacon/tomato/cheese off the bread and was eating it with a knife and fork! Even though that felt 'weird' I know i'll get used to it. I had an epiphany driving back to work from lunch. My hands are safe now. I'm a habitual nail biter, that has been the one vice I haven't been able to break since I was a kid. It's a very NASTY and UNATTRACTIVE habit, I know..but now with the new blingage it makes it harder for me to devour my hands.. +1 for the braces! I heard the funniest comment from my friend Carla this morning. I'm bracing myself for the smart ass remarks from my "friends"..I already know some of them will never get a comment approved on my page/blog ever again! but when I sent her the pic she goes "Girl you should have come to H-town to get your grill work!! You know Paul Wall got his joint over at Sharpston Mall" I thought that was HIGHLARIOUS..especially coming from her of all people! What she know bout Paul Wall?? I'm sure ya'll are going and what do YOU know bout Paul Wall?? I guess I have something else in my life to blog about now..like I need more material for my so called life! At any rate, here I am, all in my blinging glory!

you know I don't miss braces! I told a co-worker today it wasn't until I got braces it seemed the number cavities I got decreased....I think it's cause I hated food in my teeth!
but yeah, this made me think of the song YA YA GRILL...I can't remember the rest of it..hahaha
I could have sworn you had braces back in school (middle/high)... am I just losing my mind? Wait... don't answer that :)
Phopps, I did have them in late MS/early HS but my parents jacked around and never really paid my ortho bill so I wasn't really getting treatment..got to the point where they got caught up and just had the dude take em off..ha ha, ahh the good ole days of not having money..ha ha ha so here is my attempt to get it right on my own dime..I won't be in them long (prayerfully)
Too funny Danya! I can tell right now that my weight is going to fluctuate b/c I can't eat certain things..yesterday was truly comical as I tried to test these things out while eating..
and your song is funny! but yes, I officially have a "grill"..maybe next time I'm in houston I will stop at Paul Wall's shop and get some platinum added..ha ha ha
I think they just add a little extra sparkle to your shine. Ahhh.
How long do you have to wear them for?
Bethany,
He says no longer than 12 months maybe even shorter than that. I'm going for the shorter than that route in my mind!
Good luck. I had to wear them for three years...and my teeth are still slightly jacked.
