OMG, I feel like this.

I just got this retainer-splint thingie that covers my bottom teeth because I have TMJ (which is not at all the same as TMI, my dears). And my tongue is going batshitcrazy trying to investigate this New!Invasive!Stranger! in my mouth. I have to wear this damned thing for 3 months, after which I get another one to wear for three more months, and I hatez it already, aaaauuuggghhh!

On the plus side, I made a bunch of new icons. Here's one.

Yes! I had that when I had a root canal and had the rough temporary crown and then later, when they replaced it with the real one. My tongue could not stop poking it.

BUT at least the suffering is for something. Both my sisters have mouthguards due to TMJ and it's helped them tremendously. :)

Ooh, that's encouraging! Tons of people have problems with their jaws, so at least I'm not alone.
