another concert

Jazz band this time, and the dress code is different.   'Cuz we've got nothing better to do than purchase dress shirts and ties in multiple colors.  It was a pretty cool concert though.  Looks like those jazzers have fun.

no more braces = popcorn!

Got my braces off recently, yeehaw!  After almost two years, I can finally eat popcorn again.  I did eat some no-no foods while in them, like my cinnamon fire Jolly Ranchers, since life would be pretty bleak without them.  But I was afraid of having to make an extra trip to the ortho for an emergency hull extraction.

 

My vampire fangs have been tamed.  So, yay for straight teeth, and popcorn is just delicious!  Even though it was just the cheapo microwave kind.  Chemicals and corn, nummy.

Michael had his first band concert of the year last night.  The dress code this year includes a tie, which I don't think he'd ever worn before (clip-ons as a little tike excluded).  Dad had to help.
