…was different about your body.

When I was younger, I made the terrible decision not to take care of my teeth.  For years, it was junk food and Pepsi without a single visit to the dentist and only the occasional brushing.  I knew it was a terrible decision, but it was hard to get back into the habit of good dental hygiene.

By the time I’d reached my mid-twenties, my front teeth were cracked and stained yellow from cigarette smoke.  Meanwhile, wisdom teeth that had gone long ignored were now pushing the rest forward, giving me a crooked smile that certainly didn’t help with my already questionable appearance.  Eventually the breaking point was met, literally, as my front teeth snapped out of my face and left a gaping hole in my mouth.

Now, a few thousand dollars later, I’m finally getting my smile back.  Of course, I wouldn’t have to change anything if I’d just used a little common sense and actually listened to my mother.

Behind the Random: There’s a few things I would like to change about my body.  My thin frame and inability to gain weight, my strange eyes, or my lack of a derriere.  However, this is the biggest problem I have, since it really affects my first impression and the way people treat me.
