Bracing Myself

The long weekend has come and gone. It was much too short. I can't say the same thing about winter. It has been relentless this year.

I'm so excited about the novel I'm writing. I've completed the outline chapter by chapter of the major details and the development of the plot. It is going to be too cool when I publish it!

Also, about a month ago I booked an appointment with an ortho that only does braces. He explained the process and what needs to be done thoroughly. His office was so grand and filled with goodies and tech devices. We were looking at my tooth on our first consultation. It was so cool, except for the fact that we were looking at a magnified picture of my crooked, but surprisingly white, teeth. If there's one redeeming quality about them, it's that they're pearly white, thank god. The awful news, though I braced myself for it, was that I have to extract 3 perfectly good teeth! Well, it could have been worse. He could've told me my jaw is too weak, or my gums are no good, which he didn't. I'm going through with it. Because I know I'm going to love the results in the end. The whole thing will cost me about 5500. I could've gotten it done for less by another dentist but I'm confident in this ortho. He has more experience. And his office is much better looking and cleaner!

My online AQ is going fine so far, although I don't quite dig the disarray of assignments. They're posted everywhere and proper due dates are not given to each of them so I'm a little confused as to the schedule of the assignments. I'm going to go with the flow for now and do as much as I can early on. I'm mesmerized by my peers who've, most of them, gone everywhere and seen so much. A few are actually in an Asian country right now at international schools.

In a few months I can count myself a traveller too b/c I'm going to East Africa in June. I'm excited about the trip.

Char's engagement is in a couple of weeks; April 12 which means I have to take a day off work and buy clothes for that...geez louise.

Apart from all of that, I'm doing okay.
