The ice we skate is getting pretty thin
Okay, so it's morning again. Ew. Back to work today, and I really don't wanna. Oh well, at least I only have two more days this week.
So, those who have met me know that I have bad teeth. Like really bad. Couldn't afford dental work+crippling fear of dentist=severely fucked up mouth. I need a bunch of extractions, and they're all going to be the surgical kind. Which I still can't afford. And now, one of them is infected. I started on doxy, but that'll take a couple of days to kick in, and in the meantime, it is really unpleasant. I think it's getting to the point that I might have to be a grown up and deal with it somehow. I really don't want to, because at this point, I'm so fucking ashamed. How did I let things get so bad? The reality is, one step at a time for a long time.
The doctor's appointment went okay. She didn't harp on my weight. She didn't do much of anything. Listened to my heart and lungs for 0.5 seconds, told me to eat more vegetables, and it was done. I don't get the feeling that she's that thorough. Aside from the brief ascultation, she didn't touch me at all. Still, she'll refill my prescriptions, and that's the important thing.
I've apparently gained two pounds since the last time I was weighed. So the great shedding seems to have stopped. Won't gonna lie, I wish it had gone a little bit longer. I'd like to be a size 16-18. Then, I could shop in normal size clothes as well. There's a lot of cute stuff that I'm shut out of at 20-22. Oh well, at least there's Torrid. Interestingly when I went in the room, I was like "No scale?" Then, the table I was sitting on lifted up and weighed me like that. It was a little more high tech than I was used to.
Afterwards, we watched Project Runway until our brains dribbled out of our ears. I forget how much I enjoy that show until I'm watching it. I loved Christian Siriano in his season, and I enjoy him as a mentor. We just finished the Olympic one and are working on the accessory challenge now. I'm hoping we can finish that off when I get done work today,
Okay, guess I should get my ass in gear. Have a good Wednesday!

man, can I relate to the teeth thing - mine are in terrible shape, for much the same reasons. and I also have to contact something - between broken and missing teeth, plus signs of infection, I'm guessing they'll all need to go. yay, dentures? even with insurance, I'm not sure I can afford it, bc surgical extractions aren't as cheap
a table that acts as a scale is amazing! isn't tech cool?

Tech is cool Once in a while I'm just amazed at how far we've come.
