Dammit, where the hell is my retainer? I'd be asleep by now if I'd found..

...it.

1. yay! found it.

Still staying up, though...I'm too excited to sleep.

2. You're excited because you found your retainer?

I can understand that. I once had to help my little brother sort through a school cafeteria dumpster in search of his retainer. We found it, but we sure smelled bad after the search. :puke:

3. I had to pay for my own orthodontics...

...so whenever I lose/find my retainer (about three times a week) I get really excited and celebratory.

It's not as if I almost lost $170, it's more like I just made$170!

4. I totally understand.

How long will you have to wear the retainer?

6. it's actually these:

8. Whoa, I could use one of those..

170 bones? That's not bad..

9. that's to replace each lost retainer.

The whole program is $10,000.

My drug plan picked up $2500; the rest is on me.

11. OK

I was hoping Ralph Klein was going to pick up most of that:)

At the risk of sounding like a Mom...

Pick a place, and keep the darn thing there unless you're wearing it.

5. When I had my braces.

I had a bite plate, I left in the middle of the table. And the dog got up on the table and took it. I found it later and it was in little pieces. That was 200 bucks worth of plastic ruined. My parents were pissed.
