I’ve decided to get braces. I’ve been thinking about it for a while. I put it off while I was job hunting in case I changed insurance. But now that I’m in my new position I have moved forward.

As it turns out, I have another decision to make. I have a major overbite, which to fix would require surgery to break, reset my jaw and change my facial profile. Doing it now would have in covered under the same deductible (I think), but if I’m going to have elective surgery, I’ve got a kneecap that needs to be replaced…
