Don't Squeeze Steal the Charmin

Today was fairly uneventful. Don't get me wrong - it was busy, just uneventful. After work I played taxi driver for Kidlet getting her to her Cost Rica fundraiser and then hockey practice. Of course we had to contribute to the fundraiser - in the form of eating greasy pizza and the blandest linguine I have ever gnawed on. Yuck! But we make our sacrifices ... so our overly privileged children can go to developing countries to help their underprivileged children.

Now with Kidlet safely tucked into the arena for the next hour and half and Obama on TV addressing Congress touting the merits of his stimulus package ... the singular stand out event from today is sad - but true: apparently we have a thief at work. Everyone at my office received an email telling us that someone has obviously been stealing removing the toilet paper and paper towels and could we please stop or locks will be placed on the dispensers. We aren't talking high quality paper here -- it's pretty much transparent! I say if they are stealing that crummy paper, they must be in dire straits - so let 'em have it. Pathetic as the notion was, it provided fertile material for jokes and belly laughs for the rest of the day.

That just about says it all ... some days are just like that. Have fun - just don't steal the Charmin (and if it was Charmin -- I may actually think about it!).

  1. Guess the day went down the pan, in lieu of paper...

  2. Hey but we have a shot of the thief as she lifted the TP away! I thought for a brief moment that you were going to 'out' her out here! :-)
