So! I'm remembering
Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket
So! I'm remembering
So! I'm remembering to write! Finally! I'l stop cutting myself of with ! now!
Sorry. So, three things...
1. Has anyone one noticed that RPs are the only thing on BaB's first page now? There's one HP RP, one Leven Thumps RP, but the rest are all Warriors. I'm sure it's a lot of fun and everything, but now, if someone creates a book thread, after a matter of hours it goes to the back.
2. I went to the orthodonist yesterday. Ugh. So, I have to remove two teeth while being knocked out (is novicane really that bad?) and there's a 20% chance that that won't work, and I'll be forced to wear braces.
3. I'm writing a parody - Garry Otter and the Magician's Rock. *smirk* I love parodies, even of good books. ;)
Two negative things, one positive. Need I say which is which?

Ooh, I'm jealous, I wish I could write a parody... *jealous glare*
Anyway! Novocain is horrible, but having them yanked without it is indescribably worse. And I totally agree about BaB. I never went on there much before, because I'm obsessed with books and will never stop talking about them, but now I never go on there, cause there's nothing about books!!! It's like CaC when we had the insane quiz faze!!!!!! Keep it up, but cut it back, let some other threads breath, and have a chance to grow. :)

1. I know. It's unnatural. It should be stopped.
2. I went to the dentist on Monday... I hate the dentist. Really. Please, please, someone explain to me why they think that it's convenient to ask you questions while simultaneously probing your gums with Sharp Things? It's like, "How's school? What grade are you in now?" and I'm like, "Umff... oay.. ixh..." And then they're like, "Really? Okay, open wide like a lion!" Creepy hyper dentists.
3. Yay, I love parodies! :)

1. The HPRP is dead, I might add.
2. Re: Novacaine: I don't think it's that bad, really. The only real issue I've ever had is getting the first shot in my upper jaw for the wisdom teeth; that was probably the most painful part of the entire procedure. Regardless, I'd prefer Novacaine to being knocked out completely. But that's just me; I have a very high tolerance for pain so Your Mileage May Vary.
Re: Chatty Dentists: I don't mind it; presumably they ask because they can understand people who can't move their mouth while they speak. Incidentally, the oral surgeon who pulled my wisdom teeth had classic mad scientist hair and a very slightly demented sense of humor. He was nice, though. And his name was Dr. Stern, which was ironic I suppose.
3. Heh, Ghost of the Cinema. *grin*

I don't mind talking dentists, but when they expect you to answer questions while your mouth is full of that REALLY awful tasting liquid you're not supposed to swallow, and when you speak it starts to drip down your throat, I get a little annoyed. Or when they're drilling, or poking, or scraping, or brushing, or really anything, it does get a little difficult. Or how about when they're x-raying your teeth, and you have to keep them clamped shut? Gah, need to stop ranting. Sorry people.

@ ML: Yes. *shudder* Sharp Things, dental hygienists, and lions. 'Tis a scary place, the dental office. =] <----- That smiley was really out of place. I just enjoy making random smileys. :'( :O) XD >:]
@ Ladybug: Yes, you are quite corageous... in a an obnoxious way.... kidding. You're awesome, Ladybug!

Ther you are! Come back to MuseBlog and our chess game!

Actually, I did! Yay! (Has anyone noticed how much I've been typing 'yay!' on both MB and CB?)

I was at the dentist just yesterday. Sorry about that. . . . And I don't go on BaB cause of the roleplays. I tried a couple times, but they just choke everything, and I believe the Admins have vetoed another section for roleplays. Way to go with the parody - I ought to try that. Cool beans!
Cheers,

Don't give up on BAB! I haven't!

@ TNO (umlaut): The RP itself is dead, but the thread is still technically alive. Someone who can't spell "anonymous" started a... discussion about villains and all...
@ Lovely Mathilda: *grin* Yes. And don't forget the Supposedly Epic Basket of Small Toys Offered As A Reward For A Successful Visit. Does your dentist have one of those? It's filled with tiny plastic cars and little fake compasses. Rather thrilling, eh? ;)

Oh yes. I believe last I was there, I received a *dramatic pause*... Rubber Bouncy Ball! You usually have to pay 25 cents to receive a gift that great. But no, at the Dentist's Office, all you have to do is Talk About Your Social Life and School Curriculum While People in Rubber Gloves Drill Through Your Teeth!
*loves raving and using insane capitalization while talking about dentistry*

Last time I checked, there was the occasional thread on BaB that was actually about books. Haven't been on there in a while though, so I don't know. They do tend to be a page or two down, though.

*blushes* Sorry, Muffin.... I assure you, there's a huge difference between you and Ladybug. I just get you'r names mixed up. :)

Pishaw! Rubber Bouncy Balls and *golden tokens* (*makes oohing and aahing noises at these epic prizes*) are al very well and good, but you will never guess at the *extra* prize we usually get. Dr. Shah and Dr. Rauschwerger actually inflate /Real Dentist Gloves/ and we get them in lieu of balloons!! *passes out in amazement* Tell me that does not take the cake!
We're really sarcastic about dentistry... *grin*

Mm, yes, I had to go to the dentist last Wednesday. And I was blessed with the privilege of getting lovely, gaggy X-Rays. Yum.
Re- the dentist talking to you thing. Oh, yeah. Dentist- "So, are you doing soccer this year?" Me- *gags while trying to swallow* "Yech." Dentist- *pulls out gritty tooth polish stuff* *polishes teeth, while *lucky me* gets to taste the lovely cherry-flavored gritty paste* "And when are your games?" Me (I don't even know when they are, I let my mom keep track of that)- "Uhh... I gunno." Dentist- *washes out my mouth with barfy warm water* "Oh, okay..." *trails off into land of random, useless questions*
After all that she didn't even offer me the prize box full of useless junk! *pouts* And she calls herself a dentist... ;)
