August 22: National Toothfairy Day

The Toothfairy no longer visits my house as I lost my last tooth, oh approximately, 12 years ago. But I do have a pretty good Toothfairy story.

When I was about 9 or 10, I had just finished brushing and flossing my teeth. I stretched over the toilet to throw my dental floss into the garbage can and SPLASH, my loose tooth fell into the toilet.

There was no way I was going to reach into the toilet and pull out my tooth. My parents didn't want to reach into that germ-bowl either. But I was adamant that I get my money from the Toothfairy.

So my parents helped me craft a note to the Toothfairy explaining the rather odd situation.

And what do you know, my little note worked.

I woke up the next morning to find myself a dollar richer.

So if you ever find yourself with a missing tooth, a little note to the Toothfairy might just work.
