I almost missed it! Thanks to Teena in Toronto, though, I was reminded 
Today, my blog (in this format, as my own domain) is 3 years old! In total, I’ve been blogging for, I think, about 5 years. Blogging has taken a back seat to school and work lately, but I still really enjoy it! My goal for 2009, in terms of my blog, is to blog more. Probably not every day, but definitely more than I have been lately
So, anyway, happy blogoversary to me!

| What American accent do you have?
Your Result: The Midland
“You have a Midland accent” is just another way of saying “you don’t have an accent.” You probably are from the Midland (Pennsylvania, southern Ohio, southern Indiana, southern Illinois, and Missouri) but then for all we know you could be from Florida or Charleston or one of those big southern cities like Atlanta or Dallas. You have a good voice for TV and radio. |

I have most of the house packed up, and should have it all packed up by tomorrow afternoon. There isn’t much left, just odds and ends, really. I decided to take a quick break and check my e-mail. I had a message that one of my oldest and dearest friends have left me a message on Facebook, and while there, I started goofing around and took a fun little quiz that my brother-in-law sent me titled “What fruit are you?” Here are my results:
I’m Pomegranate
You are unconventional, unique, and just a little bit tart. you know how to make a lasting impression and often do so with your zest for life.
If it can, I have gotten all I will get out of mine. Why do we have these useless teeth, anyway? Have they ever really provided anyone with the wisdom they are supposed to carry? I had my last 2 taken out yesterday (I only had 3 to begin with and the first fell apart and was taken out 3+ years ago). It was a relatively simple procedure (for me), since mine were fully erect and not impacted. Less than 30 minutes and I was done and on my way out the door! I was so glad it went so easily. I had seen my cousin, many years ago, have her wisdom teeth removed and the pain and horror she went through when it all got infected. Fortunately, I haven’t had too much pain, either. At least nothing some Ibuprofen hasn’t been able to cure. And the pain that I do experience doesn’t come from the two gaping holes in the back left of my mouth, either. It comes from the gums, into which they stuck the insanely long novocain needle. I also bled a lot longer than I anticipated, but I really shouldn’t have been surprised by that, especially considering the “trauma” that the bottom wisdom tooth/gum had to go through to come out. It was dangerously close to the nerve so they had to take extra care in getting it out (not to mention that it was so far back in my mouth it took an extra 5 minutes or so just to get it all). I am happy to report that there is only minimal swelling in my lower cheek/jaw and no bruising. I guess I’m one of the lucky ones that had a good experience, if there is such a thing when it comes to having teeth pulled, lol. The worst thing about it, imho, is the salt water rinse I have to do 4 times a day. ACK! Talk about something that makes you sick! Oh, well. I suppose it’s one of those necessary evils, huh?
