Getting the braces put on and having them get tightened the first time (this is only the second) didn't hurt at all. It's that elastic that is just the worst! It sucks that every time I eat I get relief but then I have to put it on again, so it's just a huge tease I know I'll get used to it, I just wish I would hurry up and do that cause it feels like my teeth are just being pulled right out. I think I'll feel grateful when it stops hurting. Right now I want them off!!

I took a small nap, trying to fix the tiredness, but when I woke up my brother came home from school and right off the bat he spilled a whole mess of cereal all over the floor and then argued with me about cleaning it up. Two bad mornings in a row.
