Retainers
(Wrote up yesterday)
I woke up this morning with this nagging feeling running across my mind, "Where are my retainers?" I 'checked' my mouth (aka I knew they weren't there already cause I didn't drool all over my pillow) then I checked my case but it wasn't there. Feeling puzzled, I began questioning my roommates and an interesting conversation ensued with one of them:
Annoyed JenW: "OY DID ANYONE SEE MY RETAINERS?! I CAN'T FIND THEM."
Austrian Jenny: "You put them on last night, I saw you before I went to sleep."
Confused JenW: "Uh, no you didn't. I slept at 1:30AM, you weren't even back yet."
Austrian Jenny: "Yeah, I came back in at 3:30 or so, sorry for waking you up."
Really Confused JenW: "... You didn't wake me up, I didn't even remember seeing you get in."
Austrian Jenny: "Well, I came in and laid on my bed. Then, you sat up in your bed suddenly, walked over to your bag, put something in your mouth, I assume your retainers, and went back to bed."
Bewildered JenW: "... WHAT THE CRAP, I DON'T REMEMBER AT ALL."
So I ended up spending the majority of the morning scavenging my room looking for my freaking retainers. I even made the roomies check their pillows and bed sides, just in case I sleep-walked over to them and hid them there unconsciously. They were SO disgusted by the thoughtlmao. Then I went out for the day (AMAZING AMAZING DAY - UPDATE LATER).
Anyway, I came back and man, they were laughing so hard cause they were like, "What if you walked out of the room in the middle of the night in your underwear and like, handed your retainers to the nightrounds man (the guy who walks around the ship at night) half drooling/half naked and told him to take care of it?" Man, we laughed a lot but I was seriously worried cause I searched EVERYWHERE in the room! My underwear drawer, my bed, my pillow, THEIR BEDS AND PILLOWS, laundry bags, INSIDE SHOES, everywhere! Finally, to the amusement of Kaitlyn and Jenny, I was like, "I GIVE UP. I'M GOING TO PUT 'MISSING RETAINER' SIGNS UP AND OFFER A REWARD :(".
Right then, in the middle of my complaining, I grabbed my tea mug, this chunky-brown, clay-molded thing, and LO BEHOLD. A PINK TINT CATCHES MY EYE! I held it up to the light and I was like, "MY BRACES! HALLELUJAHHHHHHH!" Holy crap, we laughed so hard, I was so happy! I was scared that I was going to shortly resort to being BraceFace once again.
OKAY EPIC ENDING, GOODBYE.
Such a small joy compared to everything else that occurred today, BUT NEVERTHELESS, it made me SO ecstatic. My mom would've killed me if I lost my retainers.
