energizer rabbit ninja nights

so, I get braces tomorrow. For the third time. I got hit by a car 8 years ago and have been having dental work done ever since... something called TMJ. Anyhow, I"m down to 1.5 years left of this crap. I spent a good 20 minutes looking at my teeth in the mirror tonight, flossed twice, and ran my tongue over my ever so soft pearly whites at least .... well, we're in triple digits for sure. I'm gonna miss my normal smile. Ah, 18 months, the countdown starts tomorrow. I'm tired.
Grading is in 3 sleeps. I'm not even nervous anymore. Anxious to be done. I know I"m there and now I have to go prove it. Good times indeed.
My chum is sick tonight. He's curled up and probably sleeping by now. He looks cute. I can't wait to go cuddle in. He's been so fabulous these days with me never shutting up about either kung-fu, or my kids (students) or dental stuff. Either way, the guy has patience. Lots I could elaborate on there. He's definitely my guy. I've never been this way before. It's all new. Not innocent though, and not naive. I've been in a few serious relationships and I know what I'm talking about when it comes to this stuff. This one's different. He knows it all. Knows who I am, the good and the bad. And vice versa. We make sense and we work well together. I know, it sounds cheesy, but I'm just head over heels for this guy. It's stupid happy. That's what it is. I know he'll still be there tomorrow night. Ik now he's not going anywhere, and I'm so ridiculouslyhappy when I get home at the end of the day and he's there, or when I get home and he gets home from work. I just adore the whole thing about it. There's a lot of comfort, and a lot of plain old happiness. When we're talking, it's a real high for both of us. Not stealing energy from each other, just letting it flow evenly. It's really nice.
Right, ninjas don't feel. Ok. haha. whatever. I'm a ninja, and I feel. Ok, if I were to be anything, it'd be a monk who trains because ninjas are the bad guys, but still, its ounds so much cooler, right? I guess that's why I'm awe-struck. How can you be a bad-guy if you're awestruck at the world around you in a positive way, right?
Ok, it's off to sleepy land for me. Big 5-hour dental appointment int he morning. This shoudl be fun. *sigh*
Getting tougher every day. I'll be hard as nails in a few years! :)
That is all. COntinue as if you were normal.
