Day 49

What's in the bright yellow box that I usually keep on my nightstand? I'll tell you what's in the bright yellow box.





That would be my retainer. I'm the only person I know who listened to my orthodontist and actually still wears my retainer (I got my braces off in January 2003). I'm supposed to wear it three nights a week or an hour every day, and since it's such a pain in the ass to clean, I usually wear it every two or three nights.


It's made of really thick plastic, kind of like that microwaveable, dishwasher safe Tupperware.






And when I put it in, I always think of those plastic vampire teeth.
