On Thanksgiving morning, I did something known as the ‘If You Give A Mouse A Cookie” effect.
If you give EmLee something to put in the fridge, she’ll want to make room so it doesn’t spill.
If she wants to make room, she might just want to organize everything in the fridge.
If she organizes the fridge, she might want to clean out all the shelves and throw out expired food.
If she cleans the shelves, she’ll notice the gunk 1/12th of an inch thick and pull out the shelves to wash them in the sink.
If she does all those, things, she might want to do the same thing to the freezer.
But then I realized we still had many things to prepare for Thanksgiving and decided to clean the freezer out another time.
Fast forward to Saturday, and I received a package. And in that package, was a book. And the title of the book was… (drumroll please…) CYTONIC!!!
Then I started reading and finished it during dinner the same day.
And I brought it to school today and talked about it with two of the teachers who read Skyward last year, and a bunch of kids commented on it.

It. Was. Awesome*. And they read Sanderson because last year I convinced everyone to vote for Skyward for the end-of-the-year all-class read- I posted a SU on it when it happened.
*Cytonic spoilers:
SpoilerMy favorite parts were where M-bot threw a temper tantrum and Doomslug said poop. And when there was a mustachioed interdimensional cowboy riding a dinosaur. And all the big reveals. And the interludes. It was all just so scudding awesome.

This is weird.
I just got back from the dentist where I got my first filling.
Rewind a few weeks where I went to the dentist and found out I got a cavity! Whoop-de-freak'n-do. I felt around in my teeth and found a small hole I could feel with my tongue. It was on the bottom right side of my mouth.
Now back to now.
I was listening to the dental assistant and she said they were filling in a cavity on my upper right, not lower. I asked her about it, and turns out I had five cavities, not just one.
...yeah. Not a pleasant surprise.
The assistant numbed the area and I got the shot to numb the nerve (didn't hurt as much as I thought is would- thanks, numbing cream!). A movie was turned on and the cavity was filled as normal. When I was done, I was amazed at how weird numbness feels. My upper right teeth felt like rocks and my gums just felt like... nothing.
On our way home, we got some Chipotle and I tried some of my soda. And I'll tell you now, it is so. weird. You cannot feel the carbonation of the soda on the numbed area, so there's just this area that seems to just not exist.
As I said, this is weird.
