After looking in the mirror, I have come to the conclusion that if I am ever to become a celeberty that my teeth need to be re-adjusted. This remodeling process will require the use of metal wiring, teeth removal and pain - lots of pain. I never really wanted braces until I moved out here to CA only to discover that I was one of the only people in this state who does not have unnaturally stiaght pearly whites. Some people tell me to keep them how they are - crowded and confused - just so that I can have character. My pappy looked at them when I was a kid and asked me "do you want braces?" I said I surely did not want my mouth confined with metal for two years, thank you very much. And that was that. He even told me that my teeth were striaght, a delusion that I held with me for many years until my arrival here in CA.

The orthodontist I saw today was a strange man indeed, I think he is only human in form - controlled by a complex and yet understandable algorithm that runs in a small computing device located in his caranium, where his brain should be. He displays no emotions, never laughed at any of my jokes and focused solely on getting me to nail down the next appointment, to procede with the process. He had better price estimates then previous doctors, and hit me with a direct quote rather than a price range which was pretty standard up to this point.

On the work front, Jake has a serious addiction to Warcraft III which is unresolved. Usually this ends up the same why, with Jake crushing the CD like a unwanted pack of smokes - but not this cd. This warcraft III cd is Dan's, so he can't break it and then face up to Dan afterwards. It is annoying to me because I need to get him to do things, work with me or complete tasks and he just sticks his head in the sand. For instance the developer diary he sent into Action Vault probably won't even get published it was soo horrible. I had to threaten him for literally a week before he crapped it out, all the while complaining. He gets so iritated everytime I want him to do something... then plays Warcraft.

Sigh.

I will carry on nonetheless, Gnostic Labs will prevail!
