The Braces Are Off!

This afternoon, a mere eight months and change after they were affixed to my upper teeth, my braces were pried off again, revealing a straight and pearly smile. I do have a little wire--a permanent retainer--bonded to the back of my upper incisors, because according to the orthodontist, once your teeth start forming gaps, they just want to keep on doing it, and that is kind of driving me batty. My tongue keeps worrying the bonding...still, I'll get used to that.

This weekend, Jeff and I are going to go to the farmers' market and purchase some just-picked corn on the cob. And then I am going to feast on it! Yea!!
