" Malocclusion "

Submitted by Izzy Winchester

Been having headaches lately.
——
Still having headaches. Maybe a little worse this week. I think they’re tension headaches, probably been
grinding my jaw at night again.
——
Definitely grinding. Gotta remember to pick up a bite block after work.
——
Went to get the block fitted, but the doc says it’s not my jaw. Says my incisors need more space. He
wants to do some work on it, but I’m not getting fed that line of bullshit on my salary.
——
Two in the morning’s the worst. Pain’s not so bad but the squealing is keeping me up nights.
——
Sleeping better. Chipped a tooth I didn’t want to taking out the back ones, but it’s definitely worth the
relief. My jaws feel so relaxed now. Guess the headaches were worse than I was admitting.
——
Had to cancel a Skype appointment, can’t talk like this. Goddammit!
——
Don’t know why I didn’t think to try filing them before. Makes a godawful noise, but I’m back in the office.
——
More hair on my pillow than usual these past few mornings.
——
Broke two fingers today. Hungry all the time, getting to know the pizza guy. Don’t like him very much.
Don’t like the looks.
——
The calcium tabs are helping, only fractured one toe this morning. They make filing more of a pain in
the ass, though, it takes longer. Gotta think of something else.
——
Thank God they’re growing faster now, wouldn’t have thought of this otherwise—drill enough holes
through them and the excess breaks off like sponge candy. I’m saving the chunks to craft with once
I figure out what I can use them for, they’re a nice color.
——
Had to take out the rest. No more pizza. Looked up some recipes for soup, gonna let it simmer
while I break this afternoon. Mom would be proud.
——
Not sleeping again. They’re squealing all on their own and I have to set my alarm to drill a couple times
a night or the damn things crush together.
——
Made it to the meeting, but they wouldn’t let me participate. Pulled me aside and said something
about the holes in my upper lip making me hard to understand. Motherfuckers. Chiseling
out the roots buys me enough time to catch up on paperwork, but that’s about it.
Maybe I should take a vacation.
——
Tired, turned off my alarm without drilling. Woke up and my right side was black. Tried to wash the
eye stuff off the pillow but it was soaked down past the case, had to throw it all out. I hope this
doesn’t mean new glasses on top of everything else.
