A week in photos

Monday, Kyohei began his orthodontic adventures in America. He got the top braces on AND had two teeth removed on the bottom because of over crowding and alignment issues. I guess this is a good 'before' photo. In another year and a half, we should have a beautiful 'after' photo. Sayonara to crooked, jacked-up J-teeth; welcome to America.
Even though Kyohei is still whining about his braces (more than 9-year-old justgotspaid ever did, mind you), he seems to be channeling his frustration in positive ways by taken extra care with the dogs' dental hygiene. Poor Chitah.
Despite having a week like a bad country song (my wallet got stolen, my job is a hassle & can't get a new one, I'm getting a cold and my friend is in the hospital), I managed to have a great Friday night with some friends.I decided that I wanted to go downtown and drink... so driving would not be an option. I forced myself to get over my bus phobia. Success! I made it downtown.
My round of drinking was so gleeful that I came home and decided that I needed a new profile pic. Please vote!
yeah... I'm pretty ridiculous. Two more things
1) Check out the movie Dessert Flower. It is a real-life story, turned book, turned movie. More here I really enjoyed this.
2) My little brother (yes, that one) is getting into town tonight for a week. I'm excited, but nervous. That little shit's boss gave him a $1,000 vacation bonus. I hope he knows that by telling me this very annoying fact that he is obligated to pay for all tickets this week.

I like pic #1! Artsyyy.
Best wishes to your friend for a speedy recovery.
hahaha I laughed so much about the jacked up J-teeth! so truee...A lot of Japanese people indeed have pretty crooked to severely crooked teeth. Genetics or something. My mom mentioned about the effects of radiation from WW2 but I don't know if the origins go back to THAT
So not any more ridiculous than I am! I like #3!
Your brother totally needs to take you to Busch Gardens... and he should pay for me too!! XD
I like pix #1!!!!
Oohhh... L'il bro.... Best wishes for that visit!
Yay for straightened teeth (sorry, oral hygiene earns big points with me). Will he get bottom braces too? Extraction is no fun, so I hope that his mouth feels better soon. =)
@Saferia - Thanks. Yep, he gets the bottom set on Oct. 31.....scary ha ha ha.
