What is it about toothpaste that makes it so excellent at staining? I love my electronic toothbrush, but it seems I can't handle it. I manage to get toothpaste on myself about every other day. And toothpaste has this supernatural quality-- you can rinse it off, really rubbing the fabric so it looks like it's all gone, and when it dries, poof! The toothpaste is still there. Taunting you. Like those birthday candles you can never blow out.
So I use more water and more soap, and pretty soon, my shirt is soaked through and through and I can't wear it anymore, so I hang it over the shower door to dry and wear something else. Which is what I'm doing now.
Tricksy toothpaste.

Lord, Jenna: just brush in the nude.

Let me remind you that for a few more months you also have a convenient shelf for your electric toothbrush. Take advantage.
ReplyDeleteI recommend one of those hairdresser's drapes. :-)
ReplyDeleteWrap a towel around your neck to avoid mishaps. Might want to place a towel on the mirror as well. Better yet, use a regular toothbrush. ;) Electric toothbrushes splash toothpaste everywhere!
ReplyDeleteI do a small dab of paste for the first minute and a second small dab after that.
ReplyDeleteI do it in the buff. Draws a crowd when I'm in an airport restroom, but a lotta folks thank me for the tip.
LOL. I always make a mess, too. I've taken to part of what Rich said. I like to brush my teeth or my hair while in my bra before I put pants on because a)I'm messy and b)I shed like no other, and I'd rather it be not on my top.
ReplyDeleteYour belly is so cute! I have belly envy. Mine didn't get huge. You aren't by chance registered anywhere are you? Like if somone wanted to send a baby gift?
Before I put pants on, hmm? It seems I need to proofread a little better today.
ReplyDeleteI meant top, of course, but yeah, it seems I'm lacking in the brain functioning department today. Better luck to y'all.
Bah, I just leave it there. It's like a big sign saying "I brush my teeth", so no one will ever doubt your personal hygiene XD
ReplyDeleteMy way is still the best.
ReplyDeleteThree arests, no convictions.
You people are brilliant. I never thought to brush in the nude. Of course, I tend to get chilly, so maybe I'll take Joanne's suggestion and wrap a towel over my top instead.
ReplyDeleteTJ: Not so sure you'd envy me if you saw me now. ;) I'm up 40 pounds and still going. I actually still like my body... I find it endlessly amusing, particularly when I "flash" my dad and dad-in-law... every time they see my bare belly, they look HORRIFIED. I don't know why this amuses me so, but it does.
And I am registered at Target. :D Sweet of you to ask! I think it's just searchable by name.
that's why I brush before I get dressed, silly. Love Sassandgroove. :D
