Fairy Tales

I finally went to the orthodontist yesterday. This was a big leap for me since I haven't gone in so long. I was nervous about going and hearing their lecture. When I got there, all the dental assistants were dressed up like Tooth Faries, including pink sparkly tutus and wands with cartoon teeth on them. The orthodontist was in a white tux with fairy wings, masquerading as the Fairy King--even though I'm pretty sure he is straight. Their costumes were terrifying to me. Here I am, at an appointment to ensure straighter teeth, while all of the dental assistants are dancing around as fairies hoping for my teeth to fall out.

I was scared. But maybe I would be compensated with money in the end?
