I am trying to be financially responsible. I decided that my new resolution of getting in shape would cost money...and that if it was worth my time and money, I would need to sacrifice something else to have it. I thought and thought...and tapped my cheek...thinking....and then ...I realized that I could sacrifice my fake nails....I have had them for 8 years now. They cost a whopping $45.00 a month to maintain. God gave me perfectly good nails but I have destroyed the nail bed over the years as they grind that down in order to lay the acrylic. Too much information? Any way...so I yanked them off...and I couldn't stand the feel of them as they were bumpy and rough. I bought a set of the glue on short short nails to cover and let them heal. They actually look better than the acrylics looked. So I am driving home from North Webster the other day and I hit my thumb and noticed that one side of the nail was coming unglued. I keep a little tube of the nail super glue in my purse for just such an occasion. I unscrewed the lid and you know how glue is..even when covered, it gets a little plug of glue that is dried on the end. I tried to pick it off but remember, I am driving and trying to do this one handed. Without thinking it completely through, I bit off the end. From me trying to force the glue out of the tube, it was pressured to come out immediately. You are getting a mental picture aren't you? I got super glue in my mouth..and not just in my mouth but my immediate reaction was to push it out with my tongue. My tongue became glued to the back of my top front teeth. I panicked. I went to say, "oh my gosh" but it came out "o nye goth" I had to peel my tongue off of my teeth. Glue was everywhere. My mouth had glue floaties everywhere. My tongue was quite sore and to this day, I still have a little piece of glue stuck to the back of my teeth.
Explain that to a dentist....
