...grrrrr @ Isabele...

Isabel is a hurricane, in case you're on the other side of the country (or world :) and didn't hear about it. We were lucky, I guess, we only lost cable (and internet) a few times, but kept our power. The street up from ours lost power due to a power line falling, and a bunch of other places lost power for a couple days or so. They might still be out of power, I'm not sure.

I'm very tired. I just woke up though, I slept from 8-10:20pm lol. I shouldn't still be tired. but I am.

My dentist appointment went well, except that the office cancelled the appointment because they thought I didn't want it anymore since I wasn't getting the plate thingy. I can see how they could get confused, after all, my mom did say "Heather doesn't want the plate anymore, but we still want to keep the appointment so she can talk a few things over with the dr." *rolls eyes* how could they misunderstand that? But it doesn't really matter, my 2:45 appointment came at 2:50 instead, and I got my questions answered, so it's ok. only a 5 minute wait, that's not bad lol.

I get in there and he fixes a couple things on my flipper (that's what the dentist calls it, lol) And then he says "ok now I'm not going to read you the riot act But...." and he asks me about how I care for the flipper thingy and everything. He was really nice about it, and I do take care of it so I didn't really care because I have nothing to hide. He told me how to take care of the thingy, and I followed his instructions exactly. I do, however, have an infection in my mouth though. grrr. He said it's because of like bacteria getting in there and cause you have to keep the plate thingy super clean. I do! I think the idea of not keeping the thing super clean is disgusting. But apparently stuff got in there anyway. A side effect of whatever infection I have is that you can see an outline of the plate in my mouth. (Only if you look with one of those mirror things, you can't just look at my mouth and see it, lol.)
I got a perscription, along with the assurance that this whatever it is (he was trying to explain it so me and my mom would understand, and he gave the example of a yeast infection! eeew! I have a yeast infection in my mouth! eeew lol) oh I lost track...uhh.. oh, whatever it is isn't bad or contagious or anything, some people have it for like 50 years and don't notice it... but "if it can be treated, why not treat it?" So I'm getting rid of it. asap. eew.

I drove yesterday!!! A lot!! Yay for me. WTG heather. lol. I'm tooting my own horn. lol. My parents said I should take my test sometime. Because it doesn't really matter if I fail, it doesn't cost anything until I think the 3rd time you fail (which I hopefully won't fail that many times lol) and then at least I'll know what I have to work on, assuming I fail. Which I probably will, because that's just how I am. I took my permit knowledge questions test twice. It was down to the last question... if I got it wrong I fail, if I got it right I passed. I got it wrong. But it my defense, it was a weird question. Like, how far do your lights shine when on low beam and you're at a stop sign? Or maybe it was you're going uphill, and you need to park on the hill, what way do you turn your wheels? I didn't (still don't) know the answer to either of those lol. I sure hope the officer doesn't ask me any questions when I'm driving. lol. So sometime this week I guess I'm calling up the place and scheduling my test. yikes.
