Braced (for Moon Day)

Yes, I have gotten my braces on. And yes, it is Moon Day.

First, the braces. I have to say, it wasn't that bad getting them on. I actually only got them on the top, I was wrong about needing them top and bottom. Lucky me, eh?

Anyway, the pain was near non-existant. The most painful it got was when the assistant accidentally jabbed me in the cheek with the wire. Otherwise it was more "discomfort" than "pain."

It's suitable that I added to my cyborg attribute today, Moon Day. It was thirty-nine years ago that Apollo 11 touched down on the lunar landscape. Exciting.

For those of you who work on a more visual level, check out the Flickr Moon Day Party 2005 group. Some cool photos.

Oh, and one last thing: my GmailThis! tool got featured on Gmail Tools. Way cool.
