Woah, hello blog. I'm sorry I have been neglecting you as I try to keep my head up in the craziness of the Fall semester.
Real life has been a lot more appealing to me than blog life.
I always feel like the real beginning of the new year comes in late August/September, not January.
Maybe it's because this is my 21st (I think?) straight year of school...
This "new year" has brought a lot of changes so far
-Year 2 of grad school (no classes yay!)
-TA-ing 60 undergrads
-living indefinitely with Ben in my tiny cave apartment
-starting thesis work
-thinking about big girl jobs
Plus I have been dealing with a dental saga
I had a really bad cavity. Yeah...I'll spare you the gory details.
I've met a nice dentist, endodontist, and periodontist here.
Learned that root canals aren't that bad. But crown extension surgery is a little more nasty.
Lesson: don't put off your x-rays. floss. get some ACT.
The weather is finally cooling off now and it feels like September should feel. I am so ready for scarf, jacket, boots, and pumpkin season.
Well, I'm off to lunch and hopefully a fun hike in the mountains!
Happy Labor Day weekend :)
GAH! root canals. oh girl. i have a horror story or two for you.
ReplyDeleteflossing is key.
but otherwise, i fully agree with you about being ready for autumn and cool weathers.

ReplyDeletei just found your blog and i love love love it! amazing pictures. i am so excited about fall as well! this morning i had a pumkin chi! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy belated labor day weekend! I hope school is going well for you. I'm about to go back myself.
ReplyDeletethe timing on this is nuts. just yesterday i had a teeth cleaning and they "yelled" at me for putting off my xrays since 2007 and so i caved and they found decay, getting a filling asap.
ReplyDeleteugh, thanks for making me feel the extra money was worth it.
I do not envy the root canal - I had to have one when I was in high school. My face blew up and everyone told me I looked like a Who. I hope you didn't have a similar experience!
ReplyDeleteThank you, thank you, thank you for the sweet comment on my blog. It means the world <3
