Today, I got something I last got when I was 16. Braces! Invisalign, actually. Very high tech stuff. Scans you do with a thing you attach to your phone. An accelerator that vibrates your mouth for 10 minutes each night.
This all has to do with a tooth that must be removed, in a few weeks.
I have had the Invisalign “trays” on since late morning, except for lunch and dinner. They don’t hurt, but my mouth is tired.
If you’ve ever been in a mascot suit maybe you have experienced a similar feeling. You’re supposed to entertain, be peppy, and make others smile – without talking. You find yourself smiling widely, to encourage others to do the same, even though nobody can see your face.
Everytime I have been a costumed mascot I end up with a tired mouth from smiling so much. This feels almost the same. I assume I will get used to it after a few days. I hope so because this will go on for more than a year.
In other news, this greeted me on my drive home
If it’s not one thing, it’s another.
