No more wax! Oh wait, yes, more wax. Many, many tiny boxes of wax.

At the Houston Rodeo and, yes, I have braces on. Perfect, clear braces.

So last night I went without wax for 5 mins and I thought I was going to tear the paint off the walls. I hate that feeling of the inside of my cheeks being clawed at.

And then this morning, I took out the wax, brushed my teeth, and didn't put any back in. Five hours later and still no wax. I don't know what happened. But life without wax sure will be a heck of a lot easier than life with it. Taking it out and brushing my teeth and putting it back in after morning and every night and after every time I ate was getting old and tedious fast. Hoping that needing wax, or at least that much wax, is behind me now.

End of day 9. The inside of my bottom lip is full of sores. Sigh. Back to wax.

I still love you Fusion Orthodontics.
