My first involved me saying something to the effect of "Let's get this over with" and, later, thinking "well that was a waste of a perfectly good condom".
I was already jaded at a young age. Virginity was my enemy at that time.
I am a purple person. I am wearing a purple shirt and ring right now. I have a purple wallet, purple checks, purple pens (in appearance and ink) galore, my cell phone is purple, water bottle, Post-its, clipboard, Game Boy...
and that's just what I can see in my cubicle without getting up. I am currently squee-ing over the fact that I found a dressed-in-purple Santa figurine last weekend. I'm not absolutely crazy over the color, I just prefer purple. If I see an item I like, and it comes in purple, I get it in purple.
Why? It's the color of royalty. It's an easy color to wear and it's not something you see *everyone* in. It is a rich and visually interesting color. A lot of my favorite scents (lilac, lavender) are associated with purple. Few of the people I frequently share living space with are as into it as I am, which makes it easy to claim my stuff.
"Oh, that's Amanda's toothbrush/hairclip/pen. It's purple."
immlass is very right: once people know you like purple, the purple gifts just keep coming. Dog forbid I ever stop liking it, no one will know what to do for me when it's gift giving time!
I've had several. The initial novicane is the worst part. Once you are numb, you really shouldn't feel anything. There may be some vigorus movement, but no pain. Be a sissy... speak up if you can feel anything resembling pain.
My jaw was quite stiff after having to keep it open fully for over and hour, and there is some soreness after the local wears off. Nothing that a few does of ibuprophen can't handle.
You'll be fine :)

Ally and my bella exchanged kitty x-mas gifts last year :) I love the pictures from when Izzy was young and little. And when Ally was little... and now...

Although, here in Michigan I hear more about Ohioans. People like to tell me thier best Ohio jokes, knowing that I'm an Ohio native.
Detroit loves to pick on Lansing, Grand Rapids, and Windsor.
Social liberal, Fiscal conservative, Fuck 9/10ths of our government.

I grossed sixteen thou last year and looks like I'll gross under ten thou this year... unless I actually find a full time job.

I'd love to ditch my landline, but my roommate (whose name the phone service is in) won't get a cell phone. If you are going to have cable, go cable internet and ditch the landline. Most phone providers require at least basic phone service to have DSL though, so you may be stuck.
