In celebration of soft lips and eskimo kisses

It is my 2 years and 6 months anniversary of wearing braces today.

I have a proper bite now and my teeth are all in the right place and in Germany for the first time ever I cut tape using my teeth!!

I also opened a bottle cap with a lighter for the first time ever in Germany. It's all about First Times...

:)

Used GROWN UP TOOTHBRUSH today for first time since op today!

FTW!

Still having pins n needles in my numb places...come back feeling!

HAPPY NEW YEAR to ALL readers, droppers in, surfers of and visitors to miramanga.livejournal.com - Mira Manga at your service, especially if you're a pipe smoking wizard!

What did YOU do on New Years Eve?! Answers in a comment below...!

I played a Duloks show dressed all in black with neon pink and cyan detailing at Club Motherfucker. At midnight I had a smooch with a boy with blue green eyes who asked through Oliver Dulok if I would accept his proposal of a midnight kiss. I thought that was cute and funny...I kissed him a couple times after midnight too, til I had to leave.

The pumpkin effect was kicking in as soon as we finished the show, but Mar asked me to stay, and I love making that Dulokchylde smile. YOU know. I should have left and probably NOT have had that snog, you know, what with still being fragile and addicted to bad things, but hell, I put in such a performance I deserved a midnight clinch at New Years Eve...!



Also, you guys all know I got RAINBOW BRACES lately right? Well me and Gordo were kicking it with my 'rents and had some TASTE THE RAINBOW!!! picture fun :)


Taste the Rainbow!


Full House!

Have a lovely January everyone. Be wonderful to each other!!

An update...

This morning I went to see Mr Harper, he told me my operation date has been moved to January...good, cos I was stressing about the Christmas workload and bad, cos my parents will be in Kenya from the 18th Jan onwards...le eek!

Also! No rubber bands! Le yay! I was terrified I'd be fitted with ortho bands on my braces to guide my teeth into a different bite - they ping off when you sing and stuff and I had them before when I was thirteen. They're a bad scene. So! Superhappy about that!

A visiting lady ortho from Newbury took impressions of my bite, top and bottom and front on...and from these Mr Harper will make a mouth wafer which will be used in the actual operation. Of course I made the usual "sticky stuff in my mouth" jokes. These are now expected of me. Standard!

I came back to London, dropped our keyboard flight case in a minicab to take it back to Matt Snowball, Emperor of Equipment Hire and walked through the gorgeous sunshine and back streets of West London to work.

You can tell I live in the West, the cafe under my apartment was full of media types on lunch, I could hear a flautist practising as I walked past a window, there were tour buses full of bandmembers blinking in the sunlight as they gingerly exited vehicles to sign in at K West, au pairs pushing three wheeled buggies. I really enjoy the shady leafy avenues I shuffle along. A spivvy guy on a mobile walked purposefully past me saying "...well if the band don't WRITE more songs, there IS no deal!"....The West is the best. Get here, and we'll do the rest!

The sunshine is glorious today. Indian summer.

So today I have been upgraded* with the harshest wires ever...owch. My teeth feel soooo tight!! On the Nurofen Plus and Paracetomol...I am saving the Co-codeine for later. Yum.

I chose "pink panther pink" bands again.

NEWS JUST IN - Looks like the operation will be in December possibly but more will be confirmed in an Osteopathy clinic on May 16th.

The operation will be taking place in Oxford and not Reading now, so all you Oxfordians (juggzy & jarethshair spring to mind as being most Oxfordly!), please come and visit me! Will let you know when I am up for the slice and dice.
