Braces on PI day = Ultimate Geekdom
Subject says it all. I got my braces on 3.14. I'd say I deserve a cookie, but my mouth hurts too much to eat.

Maybe I'm having a mental block but what is "PI Day"?
Re: Braces on PI day = Ultimate Geekdom
It's stands for the mathematical constant pi (3.14...) and is recognized each year on 3/14. And definitely have that cookie...just dunk it in milk first!
And let's not forget to have an adult beverage on Festivus!!!

Now Festivus I know but I've never heard of 3-14 referred to as "PI Day". Live and learn. Thanks Jethro!

The spacers have been yucky. They are being removed on Monday and the rest of the brackets will be go on my teeth. I am in this happy place where nothing hurts in my mouth (unless I chew). I assume that will end on Monday.
Metal braces from March 2011 until October 2012. Hawley retainers since October 2012.

The spacers are awful! I hated them so much.
A lot of people find their braces don't really hurt them. That is not the case for me, unfortunately--mine hurt pretty much all the time, but you may be luckier than me.
