Note to Self: Next Time, Tic Tacs

One morning in college, after what I can only assume was a typically
debaucherous night of partying, I woke up late for class, so I threw
my hair into a ponytail, grabbed a sweatshirt and my books and headed
out. After class I went straight to work for four or so hours, all
the while wondering where the 'minty smell' was coming from. Only as
I was leaving work did I take down my hair and realize I had a huge
wad of gum at the back of my head, which had been there the whole day.
Horrified, I went straight to a friend's house and proceeded to apply
every home remedy I could think of. (FYI: Vegetable Oil dissolves
even day old gum!)

Not sorry for partying, only sorry I needed fresh breath.
