[ Random Ramblings] Do teeth really bring you wisdom?

August 5, 2010 Amy Anaiz 2 Comments

Well guys this is how I look and feel today.

I’m on day 2 of feeling crappy with an awful ache in my lower jaw. 🙁 From the feel of it seems like my teeth of wisdom have reared their ugly heads! I’m trying to make a dentist appointment for tommorow.. Maybe I just have TMJ… man who the hell knows…

Can you tell i’m grouchy??….Only thing making me happy right now is my squishy ice pack… :: hoo-hum ::

!!!! UPDATE !!!!

De got me a last minute appointment with Dr. Gwen Engelhard…

A swig of mouthwash, some poking, and 4 x-rays later I have been diagnosed with…. drumroll please….

TMJ

TMJ syndrome is an umbrella term covering acute or chronic inflammation of the temporomandibular joint, which connects the mandible to the skull. The disorder and resultant dysfunction can result in significant pain and impairment.

Apparently, I won’t be getting any wiser anytime soon because I have no wisdom teeth in my lower jaw (yay) but (boo) to a lifetime battle with TMJ….

Also, my dreams of one day getting braces was killed with the knowledge of knowing due to my otroucious cross bite, it will cost 1000’s of dollars and a few oral surguries to get everything all lined up.

No Thank You!

Guess I’ll have to start looking into Veneers… LOL..

So for the next 2 weeks I’ve been perscribed a “soft diet” and 2 Aleeve every six hours….if that doesn’t work….. I’ll have to get a night gaurd. YIKES!

So in lieu of my “pain an suffering”

Doctor’s orders! 🙂

So i’m officially 26 years old. EEEK!!!!

LOL! I still don’t feel like a fool blown “adult” but I guess when you tell someone “I’m 26” they kinda expect you to be.. Right? Well if this is how it feels then great! I am ready for this birth year to be 100% better then the next!

I wanted to say THANK YOU TO EVERYONE who wished me a blessed 26th year..

Favorite moments from my 26th Celebration.

Red Velvet Cake & Mojito Overload

July 27, 2010 Amy Anaiz 1 Comment

Hi! I’m Raquel. Just wanted to come on over here to wish my favorite lady a very happy and (equally important) fun 26th birthday. I came to NYC to participate in her week long celebration and make sure I keep her up past her bedtime. Since she lives here and I live…not here, as is inevitable, we tend to drift apart a little but each time we visit we pick up where we left off. This trip we’ve bonded over good (and not so good) red velvet cake, long walks in the sweltering heat and episodes of Strange Sex.

This weekend we’re going on a road trip to D.C. where I’m sure we’ll only become closer over our love for Obama’s adorable smile and long walks in the sweltering heat on Capital Hill. Can’t wait!

Happy birthday, my love. I hope it’s been extra special. Thanks for always being such a doll. I love you!
