Smile!

Went to the dentist today. I can't even remember the last time I'd been to the dentist. I just never had the time or money. And I'm usually very meticulous-- freakishly so, even-- where my teeth are concerned. Except for flossing. I forget to floss sometimes.

But lately, I'd been having pain/sensitivity on my left side, so I needed to go to the dentist. Turns out, I have beautiful teeth. Really. That's what he told me. No cavities. Can you believe it? I'm 29 and have never had a cavity.

The bad news? I've had a slight gum recession due to age. Makes me feel old. I was told to use Sensodyne. Has it come to this already? Don't I have to be at least 40 for this toothpaste? Oh, and I was told to floss more.

On the way back, I dropped off my application for testing. Turns out that I now have to pay even more-- $130 instead of $100-- and I get to fill out even more paperwork! Yay! Yes, that was sarcasm. No, I can't help it. Eh.. It's my fault really. I should've applied sooner. Let's hope that they didn't make the test harder, too. Guess I'll have to keep my fingers crossed.
