My jaw hurts

I know, I'm terrible. I have a perfectly good weblog, wireless internet at my fingertips, things happening to me each day, and yet I still don't write. The truth is, I was never one to write blogs/journals, even as a kid. Most girls have a diary of some sort where they recorded everything that happened each day, and I also had one, and I would occasionally write in it, but the entries were few and far between. I guess it's just never been high in my list of priorities to do. I am trying to get better about it though, believe me, and even if you don't believe it, its true, no matter what you think; so there. ^_^
Anyway, I got my second wisdom tooth taken out today. I got the other bottom one removed a few weeks back. They told me that this tooth was even easier to extract than the other one (which was surprising since the other one only took about 5 minutes after they got me all numbed up!) It was pretty weird seeing my tooth out of my mouth with all it's roots and stuff! It looked just like those teeth you see in the little cartoons all around dentist offices, except a little bloodier. Anyway, they gave me more Novocaine this time around for some reason, so it's taking my face extra-long to regain feeling. I took a couple pics of myself trying to smile, and they look pretty ridiculous since only one side of my mouth would move. Miya said it was cute, kinda like the side smirk Harrison Ford always has! Maybe I should numb my mouth more often, then I could charm the boys with my sexy side smirk!
Speaking of boys, I met one the other day. (Isn't it amazing, I mean there's only about 3 billion boys in the world, and I just happened to meet one!) Anyway, I saw him at Taco Time about a week ago when Miya and I stopped to eat during our travels through Moscow. I noticed he kept looking at me, and at first I thought that maybe I had something on my face, or clothes, but after disclosing that theory I realized that it was more than that. Anyway, I told Miya about it and she convinced me to write down my number for him. I was unsure about it, since I'd never done anything like that before, but after a while convinced myself that it was no big deal. Anyway, on our way out he was standing behind the register (did I mention that he was an employee? I don't think i did) and Miya told me to go for it, but coming to my senses, I chickened out and ran outside. He was standing there smirking at us the entire time! Miya stopped me, and told me to go back, but I wouldn't. I was WAY too nervous. She then grabbed the piece of paper with my number on it out of my hand, marched back inside, and gave it to him! Well, I didn't really expect anything to happen, but as it turned out, he called me that night.
He informed me that his name was Tommy, and we basically had a short, very silence-filled conversation about what sort of things we like. I noticed that, every time I asked him about himself, he said "I don't know...". I was starting to wonder what he DID know, when he asked if I wanted to hang out sometime. I said sure. he called me the next day and invited me to go swimming with him and his friends, but I declined, telling him I was busy. I didn't want to seem rude, but at the same time, I didn't really want to meet him for the first time in a bathing suit, surrounded by his friends. Not my cup of tea. Anyway, we did finally meet a few day later, and walked around Moscow for a while. He was actually really sweet, and I enjoyed talking to him. Some of the things he said, I'm doubtful about whether or not they were true, but on the whole, he seemed like a nice enough guy. Anyway, we haven't talked since then, and that was last Thursday, so I doubt this is going to go anywhere. We probably won't even see each other again unless he happens to be working the next time we go to Taco Time.
Anyway, other than that, not much has happened. I'm still looking for a job. I'm house-sitting for Roy's boss while he and his wife are gone to Britain for two weeks, but other than that, I haven't found work yet. I'm re-playing Zelda: Twilight Princess on the Wii, cuz that game's awesome! I've overdosed on the internet, as it's such a novelty at the moment. I never had the web right at my fingertips whenever I wanted it before, and I've become somewhat of an internet junkie. I'm still trying to get over my current obsession, Tokio Hotel. Seriously, I don't even know why I like these guys so much. But, I do this with practically every new band I come across. I discover them, I realize that I like their stuff, and then I completely immerse myself in them until I'm sick and tired of them! I did it with Death Cab For Cutie, Kill Hannah, +44, Panic! At The Disco, The Killers, Simple Plan, and many many more! It's the same with movies and actors. Every month, I have a new obsession. The only question is, who's next?
Well, I think this blog is sufficiently long, to make up for all the missing entries I haven't done. Rest assured, I will strive to write more often, but I think that's all for now. Have a lovely evening!

Anyone else notice a similarity?

Am I the only one who thinks that Bill Kaulitz (the lead singer of Tokio Hotel) looks distinctly like David Bowie from the movie "The Labyrinth"? I just recently discovered this band, and fell in love with their music, but when I saw the singer, my first thought (other than my confusion as to whether it was a girl or a boy) was Jareth, the Goblin King!! They're pretty good though, my favorite songs being "Monsoon", and "Don't Jump". Their originally from Germany, and I enjoy listening to the German versions of their songs as well. You all should check them out on Youtube sometime, if your interested in Pop/Rock type music that is.
