Women need their hosehold security blankets...My wife's sense of security is

...directly proportionate to whether we have an abundance of butter in the fridge and an oversupply of toilet paper in every bathroom. EVERY time I go to the store with her shopping list it includes butter and TP....nothwithstanding the fact that there are always atleast 6 sticks of butter in the fridge or 43 rolls of TP under every bathroom sink cabinet.

Sheesh.

That is all.

Seriously, ask her sometime, "Darlin' when you wuz growin' up, did y'all run out of TP often? I'm trying to figger out if you wuz traumatized and this is your 'Rosebud' if you know what I mean."

x2 on the shyte tickets. It's not like you won't use them, unless the drain or water lines ruin them under the sink, but that's why you leave them in the plastic or store them elsewhere in johns office.

You got three adult women under the roof and only 43 rolls of TP. Better stop at Wal Mart and load up.

Toilet paper is a big deal here too. Not just quantity but also quality. I have caught her stealing the good TP from the downstairs bathroom (my usual) & replacing it with the emergency-buy cheap stuff.

And then there is Kleenex. We (she) kill trees daily.

My wife and I buy TP once every couple of months at Sam's: the huge 120-role pack.

I estimate that I use one role every two weeks. I think the wife uses half-a-role a day. It's insane how much TP she uses.
