TP Russian Roulette

I live on the edge I confess. I life a life full of risky behavior like just last week I realized I was down to my last roll of toilet paper-- you have to realize I think I bought a costco mega pack (about a year ago!!) so I have not had to purchase toilet paper for it feels like forever ... it was like playing russian roulette each time I spun that roll! will it run out or will it last another go round? this lasted 4 days... lets just say it was a jumbo roll and I am not lacking in hygiene... and to top it all off I have a cold so I have been rolling it off to blow my nose on without thinking about the consequences.... I know CRAZY!
I saw the light and decided to stop at the Shoppers on my way home one of the only stores open on my way home from work in the mornings, so in I went bee-lined it for the toilet paper aisle only to find old mother hubbard's cupboards were bare... not a package of toilet paper on the entire shelf and when asked there was no more toilet paper in the stope I could wait for the truck.... um no thanks.... good thing I hit the potty before I left work!
Last attempt after my second night shift I thought Walmart would be a good idea... do you know how overwhelming the toilet paper aisle is on a good day let alone after working all night?
Jumbo rolls.. newer softer formula..squeezable...single ply...double ply...triple ply...single roll....double roll....triple roll... bears, kitten soft, swans, magestic.... recycled...planting trees... unbleached....quilted...blah blah blah
I had to just reach blindly grab a package of toilet paper and run! It was toilet paper for crying out loud... I think I will have to go back to costco just to ease the stress of buying the wrong brand of toilet paper! thus limiting my toilet paper buying needs to once or twice yearly...
So until next time.." if you are not living on the egde-- you are taking up too much space! "
next time you go to a store check out the toilet paper aisle!
