A good question, indeed. But yeah... if it's giving you problems it's best to just get rid of it.

just got my wii back, its all modded and shit now

When I got my braces off the second time for good my orthodontist put in some permanent retainer steel bar thing on my bottom teeth and said, "You'll have this for life and never have to worry about wearing a retainer at night! Isn't that neat!?" I was like, "What about the top teeth though?" And he's all, "Well of course you still have to wear one for your top teeth, every night for at least five years or more, but still at least semi-often for the rest of your life. Oh and the permanent bottom retainer makes brushing and flossing a bit more difficult by the way, so you have to use these special instruments to make sure you brush and floss thoroughly."

I had that thing in my mouth for six months, never came close to getting used to it being there or all the special extra things I had to do for brushing and flossing and said take this fucking thing out and give me a real god damn retainer.

Slightly uncomfortable apparatus in my mouth that can easily be removed is the same thing as a metal rod in your leg, I know. That's why I posted all that shit, cuz I relate completely.

Mine did the same thing. I've had it in for about 5+ years now.

they just gave me a legit retainer. and unfortunately, i was not mature enough to wear it like i was supposed to.. so my teeth have shifted a bit. if/whenever i have money and good insurance or something, i'd kind of like to go back to an orthodontist for a new retainer (my old one won't fit for AAAAANYTHING)

Guy I'd known all my life died last night. This spiral of death is inching closer and closer to me and I don't particularily like it.

That sucks dude.

lol whacked my elbow off of my comptuer desk last night and now it hurts like all hell to try and bend my arm past half way. This should make work interesting tonight.

i find that humerus--you must have hit your funny bone.

Spent about 20 minutes this morning packing. Going to Spokane tomorrow. Will be my last day in WA. Leave for MS at 1:30am on Friday.

You'll go back to Washington eventually though right?

I've got so many meetings in the next week. And then my first year of master's work begins next Wednesday. Apprehensive!

After this semester I'm going to see if I can transfer to Washington State to finish my bachelor's. If not, she's going to come down to MS while I finish school. Then, yeah, I'll probably end up somewhere around here permanently.

I think my iPod is officially MIA. Lost it not last weekend but the weekend before, haven't been able to find it.




At least my phone can hold 16gb worth of music so I can use that for some car tunes...

One of the hot lecturers at my uni got a job at another uni. I was hoping to have class with her again. At least this semester I have a fairly attractive tutor for one of my classes so at least I can stare at something during one of my classes.

I thought I dumped mine in the lake last weekend, nearly panicked (64GB ipod touch). Turns out I had (smartly) taken it out of my shorts subconsciously earlier

BR, wherever you are, what's your favorite In Flames album? I'm trying to test out a theory I have.

you don't know what in the hell a theory even is.

The Jester Race.

Come Clarity since it's the only one I own.

Very sad.

And that makes sense, thank you.

lol CC is an abortion of an album. At least it's better than STYE though. That is one of the worst albums I've ever heard.
