I didn�t mean to go so long without updating but between taking care of my sister, the other various events going on, and the fact that I just got a new cell phone have rendered me kinda busy. Anyway, this new cell phone of mine is technically my first cell phone. Sure we�ve had the other one for two years and it was a shared item but it really was more his than mine. Though I don�t think it really made a difference as it was only used for outgoing calls so I guess the only thing that made it more his than mine was the fact that he spends more time on the phone than I do. However, now that we each have our own and I expect we�ll both be leaving them on and using them a lot more so thank goodness we�re IN and have almost double the anytime minutes that we used to have. The husband is already leaning towards dumping the whole land-line thing entirely once we move (hopefully into here) because it does seem kinda silly to have 3 separate phone numbers for just two people - we�ll see what happens. I expect we�ll probably just move and not set up a new land-line and if we end up deciding that we do want one that we can just call the phone people if/when we change our minds. In other MOST THRILLING news, the husband and I had dental cleanings/checkups today and, for the first time in a very long time, I DON�T HAVE ANY CAVITIES!!! Can you believe that shit?? Genetically speaking my family isn�t exactly known for having great teeth and when you combine that with the fact that most of them also smoke and drink coffee it can be a scary thing to look at smiles. I don�t drink coffee or smoke and I�ve severely cut back on sugar/soda intake but I also work really hard on my teeth. Any of you who know me outside of here know that I brush, floss, and use more mouth rinses than three dentists combined. However, my efforts are usually rewarded with having to get 1-4 fillings put in every 6 months but not today! Today the hygienist and dentist both poked around and found NOTHING! They didn�t even make mention of my wisdom teeth this time! Normally I get the lecture about how I should have them out and they give me a referral slip that I immediately throw away. But not today! Today was a GOOD day!! Today I am even more thankful that usual for bringing Brushy into my life. I know that just because I had one good appointment today doesn�t guarantee that I�ll always have good appointments but for once my excessive brushing and multiple-times-per-day flossings wasn�t for nothing! Though I suppose it�s never been for nothing - surely if I wasn�t as obsessed with oral hygiene as I am that I�d have more than 1-4 cavities every 6 months so I�m just gonna be happy that the last 6 months went so well and hope for a repeat performance when I have to go back in September. Besides, I�m already 25 so this look can�t be too far away anway and then I�ll not have to worry about it... |
