Tobilei- Theres a multi-quote button?

Lol on some other forums. Not this one. I open each quote in a new tab then just roll them all into a single reply

I am far too lazy for all of that. You should be nominated Board Queen or something. lol

sunshine: go to tickerfactory.com for a counter

Thanks Jen- I should be fine- no real pain, just some minor irritation from the hooks rubbing. I am armed with wax and orabase so I should be able to take care of anything that might put a damper on a good time. Only one more working day left after today! Come on 5:00 FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope that in 100 years, the technology exists to align everyone's teeth to perfection in under an hour with almost no pain.

That would be great!

Thanks Dan!

I totally forgot about this forum until now! But it's been exactly a month since I got my braces on. I was in pain for the first 3-4 days, then it was uncomfortable for about a week and I could only bite into something with my back teeth. But I'm in no pain at all and I can eat almost everything :). I get my first tightening done on the 9th of August and I'm definitely not looking forward to it.

My dental assistant recommended ibuprofen before my first adjustment. I didn't take her advice and regretted it. My second adjustment with 4 ibuprofen (over several hours) beforehand was a breeze. My teeth were probably less sensitive the second time around but I'm not taking any chances from now on.

Not related to braces, but I'm thinking about how today was very good in some ways, while it was very bad in another way.

I'm thinking about the fact that I'm starving (waiting to have lunch with the husband at 1 and it's only just gone 12 ).

Also about my headache that I woke up with.

And my car service that's due next week.

And putting one of my girls in swimming lessons.

And that I'm cold!

And that sometimes I wish my brain would just shut up already

I ate a hot dog today. Go me. Everyone kept asking if I was doing okay. It must have been painful to watch.
