Wow... definitely with the blog neglect here.

Braces off. Woo hoo! Not entirely a happy day, though; the receptionist at my orthodontist's office died on Thursday, of smoke inhalation in a house fire when she left a candle burning. This is a massively fucked up thing. I didn't actually know her or anything, but she knew everyone who stepped into that office by name, and she would always talk to you. It's really hard to believe that she's not going to be coming to work anymore.

I don't think the idea of death has ever really sunk in for me, maybe just because no one really close to me has died. And I don't really want to talk about this anymore.

Got both of the essays from last week done on time, by the way. First on time in English since, oh, first semester.
