Two Stories in One: Our His and Hers Matching Braces

[Ellabelle]

I bet that is maddening, Dee! What're you doing to pass the time? Books? Some other hobby? If you like to read and haven't yet read The Sun Magazine, I'd be happy to mail you some of my back issues! It's just wonderful. The catch is you'd have to mail them back afterwards. They're very precious to me and I couldn't bear parting with them forever. But I'd love to share. Let me know!

Hi Ellabelle,
I am managing pretty well even though I'm pretty bored. I do like to read and do so a lot. I have two books on the go right now. Thanks for your kind offer but I've stopped my mail. I've never heard of that magazine before. I'll have see if I can find a copy. How are you and E holding up without A? I hope all is well where you are. I am going back to see the surgeon on Wednesday so I am hoping I will get a good report.

[Ellabelle]

Oh, I meant send it to where you are now, sweetie! If you go to http://thesunmagazine.org/ you will get an idea. It's fiction, nonfiction, poetry, essays, interviews, all ad-free. It is quite a beautiful publication.

We are good, my mom just came yesterday to stay and help for awhile. I am so lucky!

Good luck on Wednesday!

That daddy doll is the cutest thing ever! I've never heard of something like that.

Hi Ellabelle,
I did have a look at the website. I googled and yes, it does look like a lovelyublication. I think I might buy an onlone subscription. Thanks foretelling me about it.
I'm glad to know your mom has arived to lend a hand. Moms are so great for things like that among many others.
I'll keep you posted on what the surgeon has to say.

Awesomest braces story! I'm getting braced soon, 25 y.o. guy---wondering if this will affect my dating life at all!? I hope the ladies will *embrace* (pardon the terrible pun!) me and my orthodontic journey. Well I guess we will find out soon, I have no trouble approaching them now.

Good luck with the rest of your treatment!

[Ellabelle]

Any lady worth your time will totally embrace your journey to better yourself! For what it's worth I am a 25 year old woman and I think braces are so cute on man.

Thanks Dee, and I look forward to hearing what the surgeon says. And thanks, Sunshine, it really is!

I have an appointment tomorrow morning, my first adjustment alone so far, but I'm way excited as usual. Anyone have any color ideas? I'm still undecided!

Very true, thanks! We'll see what their reactions are when I flash my tin!

Do you have a blog, Maple? I'd love to see pictures and watch your progress!

Ella, I will be getting a blog and a few new threads together shortly here---I'm confined to using my cell phone for internet right now and its not the best ahahaha.

Last night I took quite a few photos from all angles (no braces yet can't upload yet cause of cell phone internet) so yeah you guys will have a pretty good view! I want to make it a blog worth reading and with lots of photo updates and experiences.

Thursday the 11th of July I am going for impressions and all that fun stuff, sounds like Dr. may even brace me the same day if he feels my case can be managed that quickly. I was quoted about 14 months to fix my issues, so it's definately not the worst case scenerio! TTYL.

thanks for sharing.

my gf and I are planning to get braces too. i also think its a good idea to go through the process together. can't wait

My boyfriend's teeth are pretty straight, he laughs and tells me my teeth will be straighter than his soon. I'm glad I met someone who loves me for me and wouldn't have cared if I fixed my teeth or not. But, I'm doing it for me.

It's great that you guys have a support system
