Toothbrush woes

This is one of the funniest stories I've heard in a long time so I had to share it. I did warn my friends and family that if they did anything blog-worthy, they should be prepared to read about it.

My younger sister moved back to Vancouver a couple of weeks ago and is bunking down at my parent's place. The other day she was vigorously brushing her teeth and when she was almost done, looked down and saw her toothbrush on the counter!! She obviously freaked out and we had a great laugh about it over the weekend. When I asked who owned the toothbrush, she couldn't answer.

Today she got her answer. Sort of. Apparently, my youngest brother had used this toothbrush to CLEAN HIS GOLF GEAR. I can not even begin to imagine the germs and dirt she was swishing around in her mouth. Even worse, my brother very reasonably pointed out that it would've been a waste of money to buy a new toothbrush to clean golf gear. That means that at some point in the distant past, this was someone else's toothbrush! Sick.

So the origins of the toothbrush remain a mystery but the story remains hilariously disgusting anyway.

Oh well, this is the same girl who ate doggie treats by accident so I guess she's going to be fine. You'd think that at 25 though, she would know not to stick everything she sees in her mouth. Perhaps she's learned her lesson but somehow I doubt it.
