You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Bummer! Well, I'm generally here and often free!

Mother's Day Gift?

Those actually made me a bit queasy, to be honest.

We found a box filled with our teeth after my parents died. It was both gross and kinda charming--I mean, they had to have loved us to want to hold onto our baby teeth like that. Of course, ask me what happened to Franny's baby teeth so far.

I don't know what it is about Tuesday, but the fitness center upstairs is always packed. I could do more work, but I'll probably just read Go Fug Yourself for a while and then head back up to see if a treadmill is free.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

This is why we need a Tooth Fairy. Someone has to keep the teeth safe.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

My mom had a couple of my baby teeth in one of her jewelry boxes. Gathering dust with a bunch of crappy jewelry that she never looked at either (maybe it was the proximity to the teeth?)

All they resulted in was another data point in my sister's caboose-child "why didn't they save anything of mine" narrative. It strikes me as one of those things (like, frankly, my dog Lucy's ashes) that you get/keep because it seems significant at the time and not something you want to just toss out - but then what the hell do you do with it?

(Note I do not plan to make crappy jewelry out of the dog's ashes.)

not your mom's socks.

Debit, I hate to break it to you, but the tooth fairy isn't really sure what to do with the teeth either.

Signed, Still trying to figure it out, but right now we have 2 locked away and HKF is trying to mine her mouth for more since she's realized it means money.

Ding ding ding, Sox. So true.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

My mom kept all my baby teeth, in a little tiny box. I still have it somewhere. It doesn't gross me out or particularly interest me. I've never known what to do with it; it feels like bad luck or something to throw away part of me.

OTOH, maybe I'll try selling them on eBay. Is that allowed?

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I am possibly skipping my rehearsal tonight to eat potato chips and watch Hawaii 5-0. Whoops.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

It was meant as a Hogfather reference.

What about something symbolic? Plant a tree and bury them in the roots?
