Im very weird...

Chatterbox: Down to Earth

Im very weird...

Im very weird...

Wanna know why? Because...

-I was born on January 1st (which in my opinion is AWFUL because nobody remembers Cry).

-I'm left-handed (which is bad because I'm growing up in an all righty enviorment).

What weird traits do YOU have? (And are there any New Year's babies and/or lefties here?)

Our next-door neghbor was born on New Years'! (I was born on a plain old boring day.) But I'm not left-handed. I wish I was! For some reason it sounds cool. Don't worry about being weird. We all are.

I'm sorry about your Crohn's disease. I remembered something that makes me kind of weird and that is my OCD. Does anyone else know what that is?

It's actually not as bad as some diseases. :):):) I mean, I'm not going to die from it if I don't take care of it, or anything. (Phew...) 

I know what OCD is. (My mom thinks I have a little of it, too) I know a family of four kids, and they all have it. 

Okay, it's time, sigh, for me to leave the Chatterbox...  BYE!!!!!

YOU GUYS DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW LUCKY YOU ARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  

I was traumatized the last time I went to the dentist!!!!!  I've been trying to postpone my next appointment as much as I can since then.  (I know it's bad, but really, I'm scarred for life)

So, I had this loose tooth, and it had been loose for over a year (my teeth take a looooong time to fall out) and my dentist said it needed to come out.  So he decided to pull it!!!!  No big deal, he says.  (HA!!  HE KNOWS NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!)  So, he gave me a little piece of cloth and put in it between my thumb and forefinger.  He says, squeeze it on the count of three, and you won't feel a thing.  *rolls eyes*  So, he wrapped a piece of floss around the bit of gum (not chewing gum) that was holding in the tooth (I don't think this is too gruesome, though I'll see what Admin thinks) (I'll see if they zap anything) and... one... two... three!!!  Yank!!!  He pulled the floss.  

It was supposed to cut the gum.  It didn't.  Yank!!!!!  He tried again.  YANK!!!!!  And again. This tooth was NOT coming out.  So, while he tried to unwrap the piece of floss from my gum, I dug my fingernails into my hand to stop myself from crying.  Well, as it turns out, THE FLOSS WAS STUCK.  Ok, here's where I wanted to scream and pull his hair out.  Oh, I don't know why it didn't work, it's worked on all the other kids I did it to, he said looking surprised.  Well, you'll be fine, just wait here while I try something else.  So, I waited.  I waited, with EXTREME pain in my gums, a little white string hanging out of my mouth, (it looked like a mouse tail in a cat's mouth) and drool going down the side of my face!!!!!!!!!!  See, he had put that really yucky stuff in my mouth earlier to do something, and it taste so awful that I was afraid to swallow it, so I had no choice but to spit it out.  (Yuck, I know)  Oh, and did I mention, HE DIDN'T EVEN USE THE STUPID STUFF THAT NUBMS YOUR MOUTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  FINALLY he comes back and puts the numbing stuff on me.  Well, it was kind of late!!  I had already gone through maximum pain!  So now, he had to go because he had to wait for the numb stuff to fully numb my mouth (plus, he had other patients to traumatize).  After a long time he comes back with this thingy that can take a tooth out, he puts it over my tooth, and... snip.  That's it.  No pain, no screaming, nothing.  WHY DIDN'T HE DO IT IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

 

 

 

Ok, sorry, I had to get it out.  hee hee.  I'm soooooo jealous of you guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*shifty eyes*

*not happy*

*goes away to cool off*

*comes back not feeling much better*

 

So, yah.  appreciate it while it lasts.  :)

Hehehehe, I doubt you're that small.  I know this girl named, err, I've been calling her C., and there was this one night at my church camp where EVERYBUGGY was crying (a very emotional night).  C., T. (I think it was T.  Maybe it was I.  I don't know... :):):)), and I were all crying for the same reason.  Then this cabin counseler that we didn't even know, walked up to C., and said, "Aww, little girl!  What's wrong?" [C. may be small, but her voice is wicked loud!] She started to cry even louder, then T. and I went over to give her a hug, but the woman looked at us, like, 'what are you group 2 girls doing with this sweet little group 1 girl?  Why, it's probably her bedtime!'  (the camp devides the ages by groups)  So then eventually we got the lady to leave, and C. seemed releaved. :):):)

Hmm... no special b-day, but I was born with hip dysplasia and a cleft palate.  Whenever I say that, people lean closer to me to look at my upper lip.  It makes me really uncomfortable, especially because it wasn't on my lip, it was in the back of my mouth, and doesn't show.  :)

Oh, and my Dad is a lefty, and my brother wishes he was!!!!  :)

Go weird people! I just remembered: My sister and I have dietary problems. Is that weird? I don't have a BFF out of the house (and offline). Is that weird? I don't watch much TV. Is that weird? I don't, um... eat gum. Is that weird? I could go on forever. Is that weird?

This is weird!! I'm on the same time as Paige!!! Hi, Paige!! People think I'm weird because I have 6 sibs and I'm homeschooled and have different intrests than most kids, but those are such lame reasons to think someone is weird!!!!  George Washington, Thomas Edison, Wordrow Wilson, and Abraham Lincoln were all HOMESCHOOLED!!! Hehehehehe, beat that.

According to other people's comments, I guess I'm weird, too! (not that I didn't know that!)  I have glasses, I'm homeschooled, I live in a state that some people don't even know is a state, etc, etc, etc! :D:D:D:D
