What is going on with me? For weeks I had been pushing my tongue against the back of my teeth during the night SO HARD that my teeth ached all day long from it. Now, I've progressed to biting and clenching. What gives?
A girl from DD's high school posted a pic on facebook of herself drinking from what you and I know to be a mason jar. She captioned it with unintended idiocy: "Yes, the maize and jar is bigger than my head." Maize and jar??? I knew she was a leetle bit dumb but come on....
I need to start keeping tweezers in my car. Before I get out, I do a last minute booger check in my visor mirror and I see about a dozen pluck worthy eyebrow strays. Did they grow in since I left the house? I'm so taken aback that I usually forget to do the booger check. And you know you do that too. If not, you should.

oh it must be tuesday,there is mention of teeth?
ouch! on the tweezing, I'm such a wuss!
well now we know it's not Mason's Jar?
Isn't "Mason" stamped on the outside of the jar? She's a fricking genius! HA!
Maize and jar. LOL.
The teeth thing. I have always been a teeth grinder, I know how you feel. I used to have to wear night braces until my dog ate them.
Now that I'm a wee bit older, I worry that my bones aren't what they used to be and I will wake up toothless. Having no front tooth would absolutely ruin my day. Try a gag, hubby will help.
Maize and jar? Perhaps she was drinking corn alcohol. It would explain a lot.

I'm a clencher! Clench my teeth so hard when I'm sleeping I've started to crack my front teeth. I was informed a night guard would be my best bet..figured cool..ok.. lets do it.
I have dual insurance! I won't have to pay a dime! YAAAAAAAAAAY!
ha! They'd rather you crack, maim, rip them out, have a root canal, have rotten teeth then pay for a night guard. Now I just wear my sons football helmet to bed with his mouth guard. LOL. kiddin of course. but I know what you mean. They say stress.. I say.. stress + life. Watch the news I told the dentist office. You'll see why I'm a clencher! =/
I'm starting to grow little hairs on my chin. That's reason enough to keep tweezers in the car! When my mom offered to pluck my grandma's chin hairs, grandma told mom to tell her more often when those little suckers needed to be plucked! (I know, you were writing about eyebrow hairs, but they're kind of in the same area as chin hairs, right?)
I totally agree about the tweezers! I think the same thing when I look in the mirror in the car!!
Holy Smoke- top 10! Woohoo!
I went through the night time grinding thing when I was really stressed out last year. I even purchased those ugly gummy things to place in my mouth at night.

Isn't it funny how those random eyebrow hairs seem more pronounced when you're looking in you car mirror? ;) Good idea keeping tweezers in the car...but I wouldn't pick boogers with 'em... ;)
Happy RTT! :)
Do I see a night guard for your teeth in your future?? They are super fun and oh so fashionable. ;-)
Pure genius..I never thought of keeping tweezers in the car!
And..for the record, I'm pretty sure you have at least a few friends!
Booger checks! OMG, I love it! And maize and jar? Okay, I'm sorry... that girl is a MORON. Does she realize that maize is CORN? :::::::::bitch slap:::::::::::
Justine :o )
This is weird...I was at the dentist's yesterday and he gave me a mouthguard. I wore it last night and I am pain-free this morning. It worked so well that I am not even grinding my teeth right now!
I just checked the brand...it's called the Dentek Comfort Fit Nightguard. I had to pay $40 for it, but it's worth every penny. And it's COMFORTABLE. That meant a lot to me.
HAHA to the mason jar ... or lack of correct terminology.
And, of course, I do a booger check. And, yes, it usually leads to me cursing the blackheads that popped up overnight or the stray eye brow hairs or discovering eyelash boogies. Stinky girliness.
How does she know a word like 'maize' but not what a mason jar is called?
LOL the mason jar... I really detest it when girls actually put themselves out there as idiotic as their stereotype..I like to give them the benefit of the doubt... even the dumb ones...but when they profess it on facebook...
I clinch my teeth in my sleep too. The hubby gave me a bite guard but I won't wear it, I look like a football player. Sexy?!
The natural light in the car always shows the stray evil black hairs.
Too funny. I better start checking things out also.
The car is the best place to pluck!
I find that it depends which mirror I look into. It either looks like I did a great job plucking in one mirror, then I look into another mirror and because of a different lighting, I all of a sudden see these hairs sticking out.
I have to pluck my brows EVERY day - or its like BAM - they are bushy after one day!
And yes, I totally do a "nose check" myself before leaving the car! I'll stand up & admit it with you :)
I'm a fellow tooth grinder too... heard it was from stress... great!
LOL, I never check my face! I just get out of the car!! Now I'm going to!
I grind my teeth at night, AND I drink sweet tea out of a mason jar. Call me old fashioned, but...
Sounds like you are STRESSED out! Relax before you push your teeth out:-)
I totally do the booger check. And plucking stray hairs in the car is the best place. The natural light lets you see LOTS of hairs that you didn't know were there!!
that teeth problem might be because of the stress..but i have no clue how to get rid of it.
anyhow wish you all the best with it!
Happy Randomness!

How old is this girl?
Maize and jar? Thats flippin hilarious!
Too funny...booger check!!
We drink out of "maize and jars" everyday. LOL
Happy RTT!
LOL I do lots of eyebrow checking in the car ;)
I do the teeth clenching thing too. I actually have to wear a mouth guard. I have noticed that it is worse when I am stressed.
Yes.. booger checker here! LOL.. and I also notice the eyebrows every time!
I always carry a pair of tweezers in my purse. We all know the mirrors in clothing stores are THE BEST for finding those stray hairs (chin, lip, and cheek as well as those eyebrow ones!)
Maize and Jar? WTF? Epic fail!
LOL! I always am two seconds too late on my booger checks: AFTER meeting people, I always find those stinking flakies hanging out. I. Hate. Boogers.
I'm a grinder and wake up every morning with my jaw and head aching.
Maize and jar................hilarious and sad for her at the same time!
I can't believe she actually said Maize and jar. HAHAHAHA! That is pretty bad.
I have to wear a thing at night b/c I grind my teeth. I feel your pain!
maize and jar? I think that's a new low.
I'm a grinder, too.
And, maize and jar? Maize is corn...makes no sense at all!
Things are closer than they seem in the mirror so it was probably a molecule eyebrow that you saw.
As for the teeth pushing...try calms forte. It's a hyland's product that is found at the health food store. It relaxes you naturally. My daughter grinds her teeth and always has but tends to stop after taking that.
Hey, thanks for stopping by my blog!
I know exactly what you mean abdout carrying tweezers everywhere; one minute you're all preaned and proper and the next you notice about 10 hairs you've missed; what's the deal?!
I don't pluck hair, they just seem to fall out by themselves! LOL!
Maize and jar? That is classic.
STRESS is the answer to "what gives".... You'd better calm down, honey!
Say, I'm almost ready to bring my blog back public after major tweaking, etc. I've even changed my name to ♥Boomer♥ -- though you can still call me MIMI or ... 'friend.'
Hope you're doing great!! Love this random post!
well you know that decoration on the outside is the maize and since it is on the jar it is a maizen jar LOL LOL
I clenched and grinded so bad the dentist made me get a bite plate made. It really works. I wear it at night and the soreness has gotten a lot better. I hate plucking! I wax mine b/c it's quicker and after I rip the wax of it kinda numbs my forehead for me to pluck the leftover strays!!
Maize and jar? Did she think it was a jar for corn??
I don't ever pluck my eyebrows. Maybe I should start? I hope they don't look too hideous.
Oh my gosh, it's got to be the lighting or angle or something in the car because I see tons of of worthy eyebrow hairs there but none in the bathroom mirror.
Ouch, I'm surprised that your tongue doesn't hurt as well!
Tweezers? A middle aged woman's best friend...
Sounds like you need a mouth guard.
I have to say I actually LOL'd at the Maize and jar. That's perfect!
53 comments, lady you rock!
is it stress? I do that when I am stressed. which is always! ;)
Hey I am giving away a
NINTENDO Wii
on my background blog http://www.tweetestbackgrounds.blogspot.com/
Go enter cuz you rock!
What is up with that? I will pluck my eyebrows then later in the car I notice I missed a shitload. amn natural lighting! I will admit to that...but not the boogie check.
Oh! And maize and jar...lmfao!
I have to say - I can always see stray hairs in my car mirror far better than in my bathroom mirror!
I swear I get more/less eyebrow hair by the second. I'm glad I'm not the only one but it just might be the lighting.
Heeheehee Hoohoohoo! maize and Jar? Maybe she was talking about a can of corn? I always carry a tweezer in the car for those emergency plucks. I ask the kids to check my 'strils!
I think you need the Prestige Emjoi with a car jack in your front seat. That handy little device will scare all your eyebrow hairs back into the follicles.
I guarantee it! ;)
And just so you know for sure, I'm not mad about anything.
Maize and Jar!! Oh my gosh, I am dying here!!
Oh ya...I do the nose check. Just nasty if ya don't. I even check my kids:)
Laughing too hard - must pee. Maize and jar...
Maize and jar...snort cackle snort...
Thanks for making me paranoid about getting out of my car now;)
maize and jar? really? that's hilarious!!!
when I remember, i actually do a booger check too, as well as a teeth check (make sure nothing is stuck). however, never thought about checking my eyebrows =).
What in the world could be causing you do to that with your teeth and tongue during your sleep? I certainly hope that it is a passing phase.
When my husband is with me he does all the last minute checks to make sure that my make up is even, no boogers, no lipstick on my teeth. I certainly appreciate it. :)
The biting and clenching thing ... no joke there is a condition. I clench sometimes and wear a mouth guard at times when it really starts to get to me. Talk to your dentist. If you have good dental insurance, you might be able to get a mouth guard to keep you from doing it. Or you can buy them online or at drugstores and fit it yourself after boiling. I think it might be called TMJ or something.
And the maize and jar ... OH MY LORD!
