Well, things are looking up here. My permanent replacement teeth have been seated and I can once again chow down on all the apples, carrots, and saltwater taffy I want - they're BETTER than real teeth; JEALOUS? You too can have your very own porcelain beauties for the very reasonable price of a piggy-back face-plant. My Terminator red-eye is just about cleared up, too. Today, while sipping on some coffee in the wait station, it struck me that this is my last week of college classes. The worst is over, and finals should be easily handled. F'in AWESOME. Before long, I'll have a diploma to slap on my wall at home and the adventure of a round-country roadtrip before me.
