When I was younger, I had braces installed by one of the finest orthodontists money could buy. Unfortunately, he was a bit of a quack, and never managed to fix my teeth properly (particularly my lower teeth). I went back years later and he tried again, but his dumbass "solution" to remedy the situation just made everything worse. My teeth are now falling apart because of uneven pressure points. Every once in a while, I bite wrong and pieces of tooth break off that I then have to go get fixed.
It really sucks ass. And, because of all these problems, I hate going to the dentist with a passion.
So can you guess where I got to go first thing this morning?
The only thing worse than the actual work being done is the bill that follows. Argh.
Needless to say, I am not a happy camper today.
And in non-tooth-related news...
I am way behind in reading my email. So totally behind that I probably won't be caught up until Easter. I promise that I am not ignoring those people who are patiently waiting for an reply... but I've just been really busy trying to get all my work done so that my half-day at the dentist doesn't make me have to work the holiday weekend.
Of all the lost bloggers, I've only identified eight (I think). I'm not good at this game at all, but remain surprised that nobody has guessed my historical figure yet. I suppose not everybody looks at things like I do, or expresses themselves like I do, so they are missing the clues? Oh well, since tomorrow is the last day, I'll be revealing just about everything...
Oh yeah, the penultimate "Lost Blogs" entry is now up over at DaveSpace! Click here to read it!
Those of you wanting to make guesses as to my "lost blogger's" identity should send me an email at the address in my sidebar. Comments with guesses will not be approved! Who knows, there might be a prize for the first person to guess correctly! But remember the rules... you only get ONE GUESS... so make sure you're sure about who it is before contacting me, because any subsequent guesses by the same person will be tossed out. Good luck!

You’ve guessed eight correctly? Geez, you’re a freakin’ GENIUS! I’m not sure of my count but I know it’s less than five. I think most people took far more care than I did about planning and planting clues. I’ve just been winging it higgly-piggly.
that reminds me, i need to floss.
I’m loving the DaveSpace site! But I’ve still no idea who you are. 🙁
As for Tom…I think he’s kinda hot.
OK, I sent my guess to you with much trepidation.
I’ve identified 19, although some LBers haven’t confirmed their identities yet. I’m astounded to discover what trivia has stuck in my head over my years of reading biographies! Why can’t I remember the minutiae of my own life so well?
Does ANYBODY like going to the dentist? No, I didn’t think so.
As much fun as I’m having writing for the Lost Blogs campaign, I’m sucking at guessing. Oh well. No prizes for me.
I feel your dental pain. See my latest entry – written about 1 minute ago.
My only correct guesses have been those I made on the very first day. None since then. History, Schmistory.
