I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

And just a few (well, 40) miles away we have a high of 93. It's still pretty pleasant, so far

My doctor randomly (as far as I know, maybe there was an actual reason that I just did not absorb) had me get an MMR booster a few years ago so I feel ahead of the curve on that one

Peeps! I get my braces off tomorrow! Wasn't supposed to be until this coming Monday, but they called and said my retainer came in today, and they can fit me in tomorrow. Twenty, twenty, twenty- two hours to go... YAY!

Peeps! I get my braces off tomorrow!

Oh no! Now I'll have to stop calling you Iron Fang behind your back.

Or, Tinsel Teeth. Or Brace Face.

All of them, out the window!

I dunno, I kind of like Iron Fang. It's fierce!

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

retainer

Learn from my mistake.

When I was a teenager, I wore retainers (top and bottom) for twelve months. That summer, on the flight back to the U.S. for vacation, I took my retainers out to eat dinner, failed to put them back in afterwards, and fell asleep. When I woke up, my tray-table had been cleared, and the retainers were gone. I had to go back to the galley and search through all the trolleys of meal dishes to find them.

But I did find them. Whew.
