Tape Shortage

Another morning post.
I just wanted to tell the tale of my retainer almost getting thrown away.
Well, it pretty much did get thrown away, but it was saved!
Anyways, yesterday I had wrapped it up in a napkin while I was eating lunch. It wasn't exactly a smart move on my part.

See, I usually would wrap my retainer in a napkin. If someone were to pick it up then they'd feel that something was inside of it. I've done it a few times before and there were never any agonizing results. Well, last night, while gathering the garbage for Garbage Night...it must've gotten mixed in with the trash.
At first I was like "Oh shit, oh shit, oh shit," but I knew where it would be. I decided to 'sticker' (there was no tape) a note to the door for Dad. I didn't want him to go and dig for my retainer, it was just to let him know and have him wake me up so I could go and fetch the damn thing before the garbage man came. Well, knowing my kind hearted and generous father, he went across the street and hauled the trash can over here. He had started to look for my missing retainer, but had to leave for work shortly. But it was so nice of him to look!
Thankfully, when I got up finally, I grabbed the bag that Dad and I figured the retainer would have most likely wound up in, opened it, dug a little through the trash, and ta-da! I am so thankful that my little bastard of a retainer was there.
I'm getting my upper retainer today at the dentist, so what
would I have said when I showed up without my lower? Hah!
Basically, everything is fine now. I hauled the garbage can back across the street, explained to Grandma what happened when she came outside asking me what I was doing with the garbage, hung out with her for a bit, then came back home.
I shall never put my retainer in a napkin again!
Lesson learned.

Other than that,
My love for the KougaxSeto pairing has led me to 'manipulate' some screen shots. Oh, yes. I went there.
I've done better but I'm a bit too lazy at the moment to pull of anything fancy-pancy. Enjoyeth at thy own pleasureth. <3

Hey toowit....
Not many get a nice compliment on their first blog entry, do they?
I'd like to thank you for that compliment... I really appreciate it...
You are most welcome to follow my blog... and I'd love it if you could direct your friends too...
Well I have to confess something... Unlike many who blog to share their day to day activities, I've started blogging to improve my language... So my blog entries won't be regular... I'll let you know why I'm so particular on that later on....
For now read my blogs whenever you find time and please post a comment whenever you feel like it... And please don't blame me for my boring topics ( my blog cannot captivate as much interest as yours :-) )...
And I read a couple of your entries... They were very nice and interesting... I'll keep in touch whenever I'm free...
