Stuck

I got stuck on the toilet this afternoon. Embarrassing I know, but yet fascinating at the same time. How exactly does one get "stuck" on the toilet? Did you sit on glue you ask? Nope. Sometimes you really have to go and don't look to see if all the necessary items are in place, you just assume they are!

When I have a half day at work I run home to eat and then enjoy a blissful afternoon running errands and being on my own. I was running a bit behind at work and decided that I really didn't have time to stop by the restroom full of people and wait when I had a whole afternoon off. Anyway. As I was driving home I decided the best course of action was to run straight to the guest bathroom. By my calculations it was closer and I had easier access. I get home, unlock the door, and start running. When I get there, I heave a sigh of relief, until I see we have no toilet paper left. I panic.

I can see the kitchen with the paper towel in the next room (we have a small apartment and I leave the door open when alone okay?) Then I think back to when we moved from California and the "paper towel incident" that went wrong. I blush. I then realize this isn't the answer. It is my free day, why spend it with the maintenance man cleaning a clog? So. I wait and think a bit what the best course of action might be. I contemplate using the guest room towels or just getting into the bathtub to "rinse". I finally get the nerve to run into the living room and rustle through the closet knowing this is probably the best course of action, but praying no one saw me. I grab the roll of paper and run back. We only have 2 rolls left. I need to go to the store. At least there is one roll left for my guests.
