    Both of my kids brush their teeth in the shower. I found that out years ago when I started to take toothbrushes out of the shower and put them back into the toothbrush holder. ( they can't do that themselves, just as they can't put a new roll of toilet paper on the tp holder. Instead, they must stand the new roll up on top of the cardboard tube of the empty roll <sigh>.) I guess I can't say, "brush your teeth at the sink! I've never heard of anyone brushing their teeth in the shower!" to any of them anymore.

    peace,
    somebody...who is not going to tell her kids that I've now heard of others who brush their teeth in the shower.

    titanium rod. . . . .

    ok i wish i could have a really cool story as to how it happened ie, snowboarding, rollerblading, skydiving accident, but that is not the case. . . . .

    early on this year as i was leaving work, i was jumped by some guy in a ski mask wielding a lead pipe, he approached me from behind and in hindsight i am quite lucky to be alive, the only reason i know that he was behind me was cuz i saw him approach as i was opening my car door and i heard the crunching of the snow underneath his feet which stopped directly behind me,
    as i turned around i saw him pull this pipe from underneath his jacket, i pushed him back and started to run, it gave me a few secs to run but he swung the pipe and got my arm which i realized after the fact, it was so cold that i didn't feel the bone snap, i turned and kicked him in th stomach and sent him back causing him to drop the pipe, for some reason he turned around and ran, i made it back to the shop and the paramedics were called, i spent the next 3 days in ICU, because during the attack my spleen burst, which was removed the following day,

    adrenaline is a beautiful thing
    crazy world i tell you
