I get my braces off in 12 hours. YAHOOOO. It has been almost exactly 3 years. 3 long, arduous, popcorn-free (well, almost. A girl has to indulge at the movies) years.
I went grocery shopping today and on impulse threw a pack of gum in with my order. I used to love chewing gum, presumably because as a kid/teenager my mom never let me have it. My one single act of rebellion (ok, there were a few more that need not be mentioned) was to chew some serious gum when I got out on my own**. I can't wait to get it back.
So in honor of my break from the orthodontic prison, give some poor kid in braces an encouraging smile today, and tell them how stunning they look in rubber bands. You will make some gawky pre-teen really happy :)
**I have always been a very responsible gum chewer. I do not stick on metro seats, under handrails, on sidewalks, or in anyone's hair. I also do not swallow it, just in case it really does take 7 years to digest.
