We all have a friend or two who has lived and aged... a little harder than the rest of us.
Last weekend, Beau stopped by an old friend's house for a visit. After the visit, on his way out, Beau saw a sign taped to the inside of the front door. It was a drawing of a smiley face with the message:
Don't Forget Your Teeth!
Beau had to ask about it (I'd like to meet the person who could walk by that sign without asking).
The friend's wife piped up and said "Oh, that's mine. My front two teeth are false. One day, I went to the store and forgot my teeth and my bra and I didn't brush my hair. And I ran into my boss! So now I have that sign to remind me not to forget my teeth."
Now, I've walked out the door and forgotten my keys or mascara or (very rarely, but I'll admit to it) deodorant. But TEETH? How could you forget your teeth? How could you forget your bra? What must her boss have thought? Yikes.
But, nonetheless, it's a good life lesson. Next time you're on your way out of the house, don't forget your teeth.
