...because today I finally lost my last baby tooth. Yeah, twenty-three years old, and I've been walking around with an extra tooth in my mouth that I don't need (aside from the wisdom teeth).
For the last several years, my lower left canine has been a little loose. I could wiggle it back in forth a little bit. It was really loose way back when I was ten or so, but then it attached itself firmly to my jaw again once the adult canine decided to come in beside it. My teeth managed it all right since I have a lot of extra room in my mouth (which is perfect considering the number of times I manage to stick both feet in there).
A few weeks ago, I got it really loose again after a minor eating incident involving a slice of meatloaf. I've been eating soft, gooey stuff and soup since last Friday since it was getting painful to chew (and I'm too cheap to spend some money going to a dentist). Today, I got really tired of it and yanked the sucker out. No wonder it hurt so damn much; the root is jagged and razor sharp.
Yep, I lost my final baby tooth. Pretty soon, I bet I'll stop thinking that girls have cooties.

Oh, yes, I remember the cooty shot. I blame my current love woes on overdosing on them when I was in fourth grade. I couldn't help, I was addicted to them. At the height of my problem, I was doing three dozen cooty shots a day. Even when there were no girls and, thus, no chance of contamination, I'd find myself in locked in the bathroom giving myself cooty shots. I was mess.
Fortunately, I haven't Leave it to Beaver is a very long time. Even though I grew up on the shows of the '50s and '60s, I never learned to like the preachy "this is how society should be" totally-anticeptic shows like Leave it to Beaver. I did, for some reason, like The Donna Reed Show, though.

Hey, I was shocked with the whole "girls don't have a penis" thing as well. And I found out the hard way: from movies. Yes! My parents allowed me to watch soft-core pornography until I realized that girls not having penes was a good thing!
And, by soft-core porn, I am refering to that classic trilogy of 1950s high school shenanigans known as Porky's.

hmm. .my mom had a cartoon she showed me called 'Where Did I Come From?' that i was shown when i was 9 years old.. you have never lived until youve seen cartoon sperm closing in on an egg after animated intercourse *shudders*
i think that making sex education something my mom could hit the 'play' button of and go in the other room for a cup of coffee is one of the single most ominous signs of the coming apocalypse.
by the way, cooties do exist and they are dangerous. my friend fooled around with a girl and he needed a few shots and a special cream to get rid of her cooties.. he told me about the cooties test the doctor did and i never want a q-tip put there!
by the way, ive been sparing you the sex-life updates because they infinitely increased in "huh"-ness about three weeks ago.. but the keywords are 'local club', 'fetish night', 'naked boobies', 'fake IDs', 'free drink passes', 'duct taped nipples', 'voyeur', and 'orgy'.. be thankful that i dont know how to deal with it well enough to talk about it. just keep an eye on my member status line to know when the ship sinks...

Lamkin Elementary School. Fifth Grade. Mr. Miller took all of the boys into the 4th/5th grade art room for sex education. Sex education consisted of watching a video and a discussion on our coming changes. We saw the animated intercourse, and we saw the animated sperm. All this and more from a Disney product.
About the only good thing to come from it was that I expanded my vocabulary to include "scrotum," "erection," and "ejaculation."

Anyway, and I am slightly embarrassed here, but I'm still not 100% sure if cooties is a completely made up thing (say, the American equivalent of "lurgies", only based around kissing), or if it does actually refer to a real thing (like, oh, I don't know, nits). Someone please drag me out of this bottomloss pit of confusion.
-------------------- Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

cooties arent real at all.. however i use the term inclusively to describe any sort of itching, burning, bubbling or dripping that could be caused by a dirty dirty girl, since imaginary cooties were mainly caused by girls when i was a kid, and adult cooties seem to regularly be the fault of girls in the Providence venue (most of my close friends are girls, and i know of none of them catching something from a guy, but most of the guys i know have caught something from a girl)
scabies were the specific cootie to avoid last year...
