A chapter in the book Short

Waiting

by Bill Schott

"What's taking you so long in the bathroom?"

"I'm brushing my teeth."

"It's been a half an hour. How many teeth do you have?"

"It's a process. I rinse with antiplaque solution, then brush with a fluoride paste. I rinse, floss, rinse again, and then swish hydrogen peroxide."

"You do this every day?"

"I'm not done yet either. Next I gargle with a mouth wash."

"So are you done?"

"Just have to polish and rinse."

"Can I use the toilet?"

"Still have to do my hair and makeup."

"I want a divorce."

"Consider a second bathroom instead, dear -- and smile."
