Tooth Tunes

Bella has a tooth tunes toothbrush. I will assume you are not familiar with this thing. It is a tooth brush that when turned on and a gentle amount of pressure is applied a song will play continuously for 2 minutes. It is only loud enough for the person using it to hear it clearly in their own head. It helps children know when they have brushed long enough. It’s a good idea, really.

When standing next to Bella while she brushes her teeth to Kelly Clarkson, it sounds like a radio far away with crappy reception. She does not want me to dance to her tooth brush. So, of course, I want to dance all about the bathroom. And I do. How often does a parent get to annoy the child?

Then I got to wondering why don’t they come out with make-up applicators like this? But instead of tunes, it would be compliments.
“Look at you!”
“You go girl.”
“That really brings out the color of your eyes.”

How nice would that be?

But don’t stop there!

As I applied my make-up, pretending I had one of these, an Asian accent delivered the compliments for some unknown reason. And now I’m certain that I want an eye shadow brush that says,

“You-ah one haut numba.”

As I wipe the tears of laughter from my eyes and look around to make sure noone heard my loud outburst I find myself thinking that this is a great idea. YOu could possibly make a lot of money off of this. Apply for a patent. Also i'd like to visit your House of Silly more often. ..anon#1
