It's Snack Time. I'm feeling sleepy.

I went to the orthodontist today for a consultation. I, unfortunately, have a mouth that is more screwed up than it seems; I'm not the ideal candidate for InvisAlign®. There for, they want to put ceramic braces on me, which are less visible, but still have that stupid steel line running across all the teeth. And in order to fix my bottom jaw, those braces would need to be on for 6-9 months. Not an extremely long time in the long run, however, my bread and butter comes from my smile, and I don't think I'd be very marketable as a 25 year old with braces. I could do just the top row of teeth for 12 weeks and get my one problem tooth straightened out, but still... I can't really perform with a mouthful of metal.

I'm not really worried about the cost, as it's a write-off no matter what. I just don't know whether I should spend the money and get the invisible braces and maybe not the results I want, or if I should fix my mouth completely and take a break from acting, which doesn't even sound plausible as it's the only job I have right now.

Why, oh why did I choose a profession that counts so heavily on looks? Meh.
