Crooked Smiles

You know how I have a crooked smile? It's not because my face is crooked. It is, but that's not why.

Apparently my neck is too straight (side view) and is pinching a nerve which makes the right side of my face slightly less sensitive than the left on the jaw nerve. This makes me pull my right cheek up more so that there's even smiling pressure, but not even actual pressure. Or whatever. Point is, I'm weird. Actually that wasn't the point. I forgot the point back when I was typing the first part of this paragraph.

Anywho...

Yeah, I've been getting some help from a chiropractor and getting my nerves tested and stuff. At least the massages are working. I'm a bit skeptical about the whole adjustment thing, but I'm definitely not going to do surgery. Nope. Not gonna' happen.

And when I start feeling better (and my treadmill gets moved to my apartment, finally) I'll, uh, start exercising. Yeah. Believe it or not, I used to love walking on my tready... and doing tai chi and stuff. I've become a right sloth the last couple of years with all the helping of sick people and the freely buying of pudding pie mixes since I moved... I love chocolate pudding pie.

And tai chi looks ridiculous when a fat rear end is doing it. Haha. I close the blinds now... and I've forgotten the last part of that dance, the part between where you do this one footed thing, twist, and go back to the starting point for some reverse action... and I'm messing up the reverse action. And my breathing is totally erratic, not calm at all. Yeah. But who cares. I've only tried doing it a couple of times now. I'll figure it out. Or look it up. Ha.

Currently: Cleaning out the old house and when not doing so, worrying about cleaning out the old house.
