Day One Hundred and Fifty-Six - Gin-gi-vi-tis

My teeth are extra sensitive or maybe I'm just extra fussy...but being sick there is plenty of opportunity for gross teeth feeling. Between the throat candy things [that do absolutely nothing], cough syrup and all of the juice - my teeth feel bathed in a film of scum. It's really pleasant. There is some dopey advert for an electric toothbrush that say something like their product has the power of two toothbrushes at once. This little claim kinda stuck with me and rattled around in my brain until I just had to know what would be so fantastic about two toothbrushes @ once. So I brushed my teeth with two toothbrushes simultaneously.

It was quite late @ night and really - this is the ultimate lazy solution to your bedtime toothbrushing woes. I also think children would enjoy this as I know it's difficult to make them brush [I always hated the dentist so I was not a difficult child]. However, it does use twice the amount of toothpaste and you will look like a ginormous jackass doing this. I have a pretty big mouth and it was a lot to cram on in there and still brush effectively. Also, lots and lots of toothbrushing foam was created. It was fun and I would be lying if I said I wouldn't be trying this again - though I might suggest it would work better with two identical toothbrushes - one of mine was really big, the other was my regular tiny toothbrush. It's all about symmetry, people. And suck it electric toothbrushes - I have once again defeated you!
