Teeth. And Bronies.

athenaltenaHad a very toothy day. First I went to the dentist, then the orthodontist. The dentist was very proud of me for mostly cutting soda out of my diet, but I have to go back tomorrow because I managed to get a chip in the covering of the tooth I chipped a few years ago. I'm not quite sure how that happened, though it may have been when I was on the T with my cheek against the glass and it stopped suddenly so I got smacked in that part of my mouth. Either way I need to get it filled, and one of my fillings has worn out normally so they have to fix it. Apparently if I put it off I risk having to get a root canal. Agh.
I was a bit anxious about the orthodontist since I got a chip in my upper retainer, due to the cat knocking it off my desk and me stepping on it, but they said that I can keep using it since it still does what it's supposed to do, and they didn't want to superglue it in case the adhesive got too weak, since then I would risk swallowing the broken piece in my sleep. I was glad we didn't have to replace it, especially since I've had it so long and theoretically I won't need it much longer now that my wisdom teeth are out.
I also, uh, made myself into a pony. I regret nothing. The hilarious part is I actually have close to 20 year old My Little Ponies, so this has precedent. So yeah, the ponies got me too, but when I looked up some episodes of that show it was actually really good. And seeing the expression on my dad's face when I explained what a Brony was had to be one of the best faces I've seen him make. I think I'm masculine enough to count as an honorary Brony, if only in the sense that people probably wouldn't expect me to like them. I also went and changed my Steam ID to "Fluttershy" and when I dominated one of my friends in TF2 his reaction was "Ow my masculinity!"
