Pennance for...ummm...borrowing my husband's toothbrush...

Okay. Don't Judge Me.

Rus has imposed an embarrassing sentence for the "criminal" act that took place last night - a post exploiting the wrongdoer. Someone...he-hum (throat clearing)...used his toothbrush. Used it very quickly while he was checking on the kids, his nightly ritual. Used it and then dried it off to...you know...hide the evidence.

[I would like to insert here that stairs can really become a hindrance at almost eleven o'clock at night. Who wants to go down and then back up at the hour of their deepest exhaustion?]

So um...this someone had already brushed her teeth just two hours before and hadn't eaten anything since, but decided to brush one more time out of habit. Except her toothbrush was missing. It was downstairs by the kitchen sink where she had hurriedly left it earlier. And there was Rus's, and even this criminal knows that sharing toothbrushes is NOT okay. But she was TIRED.

(Did you know that driving tired is almost as bad as driving under the influence? Not applicable here, but a good point to ponder under these circumstances.)

So there, Rus. Justice has been met. Criminal contained. Criminal act exploited. Criminal embarrassed. (She did retrieve her toothbrush this morning, fyi.)

And Justice Has Been Served

Heck, you guys swap spit when you kiss anyway, right? Just throw it in the dishwasher and all will be well. Sorry, Russ, I'm not the condemning type, especially for a tired mom. :)
