Multitasking fail.

I was so engrossed in reading Olivia Colman’s Oscar acceptance speech on my phone whilst preparing to brush my teeth, that I made the schoolgirl error of switching the loaded toothbrush on as I was about to put it in my mouth. I have searched the bathroom and myself high and low for the ejected glob of toothpaste with no success.

I know, with a feeling of depressing inevitability, that at some point during my work day, it will make itself known, dangling somewhere from my person reminiscent of the scene from “There’s something about Mary”.
