I am writing this on Tuesday night, less than 12 hours before this post will go up. Amazingly, yesterday I was worried I would have nothing to write about this week. I spent my entire weekend watching tv and moping about how my boyfriend is on vacation, along with spending a few hours begrudgingly playing Pokemon Go. I caught a rock with arms in Windsor, so that was cool I think. I only really play while I'm bored in the car, so unfortunately my lack of an adventurous spirit means I will only ever catch those purple rats while shopping in Target.
Anyway, A LOT happened yesterday. In fact, I think it's safe to say that too much happened yesterday. I guess I'll start with the good news, because who doesn't love some good news?!
I got the call. My trays came in the mail! I have an appointment on August 30th, which is good, except I honestly hoped I was going to be able to go today! The office I go to is only open on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I had to suck it up and let all those 11 year olds get their braces before school starts. God I do not miss school.
Back to the point, I am getting braces 1 week from today! AHH! It feels a little unreal to be honest. My one complaint is that I haven't seen that video yet, the one where you see what your teeth will look like in the end. They've also neglected to tell me exactly how many attachments I'll be getting (if any). He guessed about 6 at my initial consultation, but I have no idea how legit that number is. I feel so out of the loop.
Now we must move on to the bad news. Oh boy! I mean, let's start with the obvious: I'm alive! Whew! Okay, that's good.
I got rear ended yesterday in front of my house.

Oof. It seems so casual just typing it out like that, but honestly how else do you say it? You can trust me when I say I am so not calm about all of this. It actually really sucks, and I didn't even tell you the best part.
It was a hit and run! Aha!
I KNOW, I know. Luckily, I had enough brain power to jump out of my car while screaming at him and read off his plate numbers as he drove away. Plus, it turns out, when he rear ended me, he imprinted his plate into my bumper.
The police found him and, of course, he doesn't have insurance! I love life!
So today was spent mostly with me making phone calls to a million people. My neck is killing me, and I can't say I enjoyed driving very much today. It's now suddenly very scary.
Things could always be worse, but man, I really wish this never happened.
I am so unbelievably tired today, now that the majority of the phone calls I had to make are all done. There is still quite a bit to do, but I can hopefully, at the very least, sleep tonight. Fingers crossed that my life goes back to normal as quickly as possible so I can enjoy my new braces! There! Ending on a happy note!
Sorry if this seemed like a rough draft quickly thrown together before I went to bed, because that is exactly what it was. Normally I'd take a little more time to work on this, but I had to spend my night catching up on Big Brother...!
