A filling, because even starting to floss and upgrading to an electric toothbrush is apparently not enough to save my shitty teeth.

My lip is no longer numb, but my tooth feels weird when I close my teeth together.
The second best decision I have ever made was getting dentures. I was 30 when I got them. I would not have gotten them had my insurance not covered an anesthesiologist but they did and now I have fake teeth that no longer hurt and are a breeze to maintain.

Marrying my wife was the best decision, in case anyone was wondering.

Idk if I can afford dentures but I'll try marrying your wife, thanks for the tip.

So my gundam model kits shipped and apparently the package is 15kg total. I didn't think they would be that much.

So I had a MG Gundam Epyon EW Ver, a MG Buster Gundam, a MG Wing Gundam EW, a MG 00 QAN[T] Full Saber, a MG Gundam F91 Ver.2.0, a MG GF13-017NJ Shining Gundam, a Full Mechanics Gundam Aerial, a Entry Grade Strike Gundam, a Entry Grade Super Saiyan God Vegeta, a Entry Grade Super Saiyan God Goku, 6x black Action Base 5, 2x black Action Base 4, 2x Mr. Color GX 114 -Super Smooth Clear Flat(airbrush top coat),
Mr. Color 306 Aircraft Gray(Semi-Gloss paint), Acrysion Yellow Green N16 (Gloss paint), Acrysion Metal Black N28 (paint) ordered from Canadian gundam.

Back fence is busted, the posts rotted and it fell over, so I ordered some wood and cement.

The fence is currently being held up with 2x4's stabbed into the ground and screwed into it.

That's beautiful :wub: I've only been married about 7 years but I feel the same.
Here’s a tip from me and even though you’ve probably heard it before, I’ll try to add some context.

Don’t go to bed angry at each other. Mad? Sure. Frustrated? Quite a lot. But never angry. If you’re at the point that you’re angry, sleeping on it won’t help. Do what you can to stop being angry at your partner, even if that means you sit up all night and talk about it. Plenty of times I’ve stayed up all by myself because my wife didn’t want to talk about it, so I sat up mulling it over until I wasn’t angry anymore.

Don’t forget compliments! Even if they seem insignificant. Especially if they seem insignificant, toss them out. Who doesn’t like hearing that their hair style looks good today, even if it’s the exact same as yesterday!

Finally, they’re your best friend. I don’t know about you, but I like to think that my wife and I can be completely honest with each other. We know each others darkest fears, each other’s highest hopes, and compliment each other to achieve goals. Marriage is a partnership that takes work. You’ve gotta be ready and willing to put in the time and effort. But when you genuinely love the person you’re with, it’s never work. It’s a minor inconvenience.

You’re going to disagree and argue. There’s a healthy way to do this and so many people just don’t do it healthy. Pick your battles. Not everything needs to be “I win” because sometimes losing this battles prepares you for the next few. When you lose( and you will), revenge and pettiness will not be your friends. But they’ll sure call you up and offer assistance. Decline that call every single time.

Finally have fun! I don’t know if you have children, but those little fuckers can totally ruin the friendship and you won’t even see it coming. Best I can offer here is: hope they turn out alright and do everything you can to help them along that path. Some of them are just going to be rotten though. Just remember it’s not your fault and still make time for your partner.

Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.

Wise words, thank you! We're not having kids, so no little fuckers to ruin anything :rofl2:

So my kits came in... didn't realize that they, and the box they came in, would be this big... it's kind of hard to judge the size of stuff when you're only seeing them online.
They also gave me a extra action base 4 cause the epyon box was a little dented in the corner.

This week on Scarlet does a stupid thing......

1688743999551.png


Not one, but two sealed iPhones! This seems to be the only real way I can guarantee I get these lower firmware devices I'm seeking. The "Apple-Certified Pre-Owned" label had me slightly worried, but the listing said it was iOS 9 and iOS 9 it was indeed. I really want a 7 Plus, and an iPad Mini 4. After that I think I can finally rest.

I was pretty intrigued to pick up those CBD trip drinks that people have been mentioning all over, they were pretty expensive for a box of four (roughly around £6). The ginger taste was pretty strong, I honestly didn't like this flavour as much but I'm willing to maybe try a different one. If you're thinking that it makes you really high, the trip is pretty small and doesn't last very long.
