Today I got my braces off, so I was up at 9 am to be at my appointment at 10. I almost slept through it because I fell back asleep, but my dad made sure I was up. My dad never liked my braces, he probably thought they were feminine or something, so he was excited I was getting them off. So I got up, brushed my teeth, and drove there.
I got there a little before 10 and went in, and I was checked in pretty fast. Instead of going to a normal seat out in the middle of the room, I went back to a little private room, and that's where everything went down. They went right in and popped off all of my brackets immediately, I didn't realize they could come off that easily. So that wasn't too bad. But then the lady started scraping the glue off of my teeth, and it was making this awful noise, it felt like my teeth were being destroyed. And it also kind of hurt, some of my teeth near the back were really sensitive to that. Then I thought we were kinda done, because the lady started explaining what to do with my retainer. But then Kate Barnett barges into the room, and she actually starts going crazy on my teeth, and that hurt. She had this saw-razor thing that was grinding my teeth down, and there was this smell that smelled kind of like burning. So that was awful and painful and I was praying for it to be over. And it eventually was, and that was that. Then, she told me I have a cavity on one of my back teeth, and it had to have been under the bracket or something, because I looked at it, and it was kind of big. Like I could fully see it. So I don't know how they could have missed that all of my appointments unless it was under it. So that actually sucks because the last time I had a cavity, it was so painful getting filled. I'm gonna have to ask for extra anesthetic. Anyways, then I had to go get some x-rays and then I left, without even saying bye to Kate.
I went to McDonald's on the way to Nana's and got a small fry. My retainer fits really tight up in there and there's a cracking sort of noise when I take it out, but whatever. So I ate that and went to Nana's. I just played some Fortnite there until class at 1 pm.
Class was boring, it was pathophysiology. We went over lungs and respirations and stuff, then took the quiz. We got put into new quiz groups today, but I didn't really participate much because some other people were fine doing everything.
After class I went to Teen Challenge to see if there were any Halloween costume ideas I could get, but I didn't find anything. Then I went to the gym and worked out for an hour or so. I just did some of the machines, did some arms, chest, legs, little of everything. Not really any cardio though, I was going to do the stairs but didn't.
After that I went and filled up with gas, cleaned the trash out of my car, and drove to work. I'd already changed into my work clothes in the gym, so that was done. I pulled out in front of a car while turning into the hospital so they honked at me, and then this other completely unrelated car honked, too. Like boy, shut up, you are not in on this.
Work was alright, not too busy, but just busy enough. Rylee and Tyler were there for the first hour or so. Also, I went in at 6:00 instead of 6:30 pm today, because he changed my schedule. But work was good. There was an MRI, an ultrasound, lots of ER to different areas of the hospital. I went to neuro, oncology, surgical, pavilion, CPC, all over. There was also a lot of food in the break room that people brought for Halloween. I had two of those frosted sugar cookies, an apple crisp thing, and a chocolate cupcake. I ended up staying late because I got an ER request like, 10 minutes before I was supposed to leave. That one was to med tele and I had to walk the lady's daughter back down to the ER after because she was lost. I think I finished that at 10:45, and there was another request after that, but I ended my shift because I was supposed to be done. I also had to fill out my schedule for the next scheduling period because that was due November 1st and I wouldn't be here again before that. So that schedule was in the house supervisor office and I wrote my same schedule up until after finals week, and I took that week off because my parent's are off that week and we may do a vacation or something. I also asked for Christmas off, and then I upped my hours to 25 hours a week for a couple of weeks after that. And I left after that.
I drove home, and it was still rainy, it's been raining for the past three days or so. So I had to drive kind of slow. My dad was up when I got home, so I talked to him for a bit. He was happy I got my braces off, and then he was showing me these pictures of this guy in a wheelchair and these genealogy family tree pictures. Then he went to bed and I went downstairs. I watched the Slushy Noobz third Silent Hill video and made some tortellini. Then I went to bed at around 1:30 am.
So my braces came off today, that's the main event. It was painful but I'm glad they're off. Today was a 5/10 I guess.
