Today I was in the bathroom at Shields Library and I was staring at my teeth in the mirror. Another girl saw me doing this and she made some comment about having braces that I didn't really hear. So I gave a general response "it sucks when you get food stuck in them" and when I looked at her I saw that she had braces too. I asked her if she goes to ( Read more... )

I hung out with Mick and his daughter Liani on Monday because I got a text from him that said she wanted to go swimming. I'd mentioned to him that my apartment complex has a pool.

There is a couple doing laundry at Sud's right now. Folksy music playing in the background. She is asking him how he usually washes his dress shirts and if he already checked all his pockets. It's these sorts of mundane conversations that I long for, strive for.

This morning I went to the dentist at 7:00 a.m., a dental hygienist poked my gums, told me I have several pockets measuring 4's and 5's, scraped plaque off my teeth, made my gums bleed, convinced me to make an appointment for root planing, then the dentist came in, rubbed topical anesthesia on my gums, gave me an injection, showed me a tiny buffer ( Read more... )

Check it out, I just made my livejournal "Friends Only" so if you want to read my secret entries, or see more past entries of my journal, you must add me and then (and this is very important) tell me who you are in real life. I may add you back if I know you ( Read more... )
