Cat's litter box

My boys

I'm not sure why I chose these three kids from the orphanage, but they appealed to me.

 

Day 189 with braces. Send in the elastics.

The fast update:

• The stoppers behind my teeth are gone. They came off very easily. I have an annoying bit of glue left.
• I now have to wear elastic bands to improve my bite. They are very colorful. I have pinged many on the bathroom floor. 
• My teeth are in dire need of a really professional cleaning.
• One of my bottom molar brackets came off the tooth and is hanging on the wire.

Today's thoughts

I came across a really brilliant blog yesterday where someone actually writes, instead of simply posting links for bacon, star wars and their teeth. I didn't know just writing was allowed. So I'm creating a new category called jibber-jabber. By the way, the inspriational blog is baconafterdark.blogspot.com. You can see why I was attracted to it.

I was grooming through my email earlier and found a link to bacon jam. I'm not sure why it didn't trigger a whole post of it's own. Perhaps I was feeling unworthy due to the inspirational blog mentioned above. I know why this one never made it to the blog. I nearly puked when I read it.

The other day I was standing behind some huge guy on the subway. He had on a bizarre straw hat like Van Gogh and ladies coat by Liz Claiborne (albeit a very masculine style). Transvestites and transexuals are very much the norm in my neighborhood, so when I see a big one I check out their clothes as they would fit me. It's like window shopping. Imagine my dismay, when as I was craning to see his dress/skirt/pants choice, I noticed his cane with the white tip. Blind. Damn.

I am ashamed about how much I made fun of snuggies before I bought one. I think it was because the advertising is so wretched. But damn, the snuggie is a boon to couch-sitting in a chilly house.

How much is that work of art?

Nice post about this cool lazer-cut bills art here. Or check out the artist, Scott Campbell's site directly here.

Yummy?

I love it. It makes me heave. They're fantastic. I'm horrified. I'm not entirely sure how I feel about Bacon Nails. I can agree that bacon is great.

Welcoming sweet death

No, I haven't become more of a Goth than I already am. I'm just celebrating the memory of the people who died this year. RIP delicious celebrities.

Day 154 with braces. Take that, nature.

Last week I went to Dr. Lagstein for my monthly check up. I got a new wire (my sixth, I believe) and it's a pretty thick one, so the pressure was on for a couple of days. There is no power train this time, but there was a little sanding between the teeth. The gap it created was gone within three days, just showing you how quickly these teeth move when motivated by physics. 

During the next visit, the Dr thinks he'll even out the bottom teeth to the same height. That's about 8 seconds on his mini-belt sander. An unpleasant thought, but it's really not bad. 

In other news, my teeth have moved so much (hooray) that at night, my bottom jaw can get behind the stoppers on my top teeth, so I snore again (boo).

My cheap British teeth are on their way to becoming expensive American ones. Sorry, genetic heritage.

Newtown Creek wastewater treatment plant

As part of open house new york weekend, I visited the Newtown Creek Wastewater treatment plant (check out these photos at the Gothamist). For more enlightenment and excellent pictures visit newtownpentacle.com.

 

The eight digester eggs are affectionately know as "Shit Tits."

 

The view was amazing. My only complaint was I wish they had washed the windows.
