Adventures in cosmetics.

I'm usually not very conscious of cosmetics for appearance. My typical make up is mascara and eyeliner- dressing "up" includes eyeshadow and perhaps lipstick. I never wear anything else- I'm quite freckled, so it's virtually impossible to wear foundation or coverup, which I never really need anyway because I have nice skin. So- on to what's really biting me- that's right, my teeth! I got Invisalign today and they will be with me for the next 8 months on a rather aggressive teeth-moving plan. Top teeth done in 7 months, bottoms, 8. It hurts! But my smile has been on my mind, since my front teeth started crossing over each other years ago and it got to the point where my front left tooth is totally crossed under the right and pointing into my mouth, which is uncomfortable. So I decided to do something about it this year. I've been practicing speaking tonight- my biggest challenge is my Art History class, which requires me to lecture so I can't wait until tomorrow morning when I attempt class on Ancient Greece - s sounds are the worst! Debbie made me orzo with butter for dinner, which I sucked down without chewing.

I'm now working on three Etsy orders- things are picking up with the holidays, and drinking some almond milk thru a straw... I'm thinking the one great thing that is going to come of this, besides straight teeth, is a smaller waistline since eating hurts and boy is it a b*tch trying to get these things in and out of my mouth.
