Oh, and Teppy, I dreamed my cats were at your house, including Amon, and I was visiting him there.

Awww, dream kitties!

Cash, I'm sorry to hear about your sister's miscarriage.

Connolly fondly calls Adrian a "paper-towel Nazi"

DH is this way, too. I'm lucky he even lets me buy them.

My mother is a paper towel Nazi, but not for sustainability, just cause she's cheap. she used to hide them in the house so we wouldn't use them as kids. if you managed to get one and just used it to dry your hands, you had to lay it out so it could dry and be used again.

Weird. My dad once told us of a relative of his (aunt?) who only allowed people to use one square of toilet paper per trip to the bathroom.

Sounds like a recipe for misadventure to me....

We use towels, rags and cloth napkins but sometimes, I just want a paper towel.

I'm thinking that would be hard to enforce, unless she was the one handing out the supply.

One of my current babysitters only uses paper towels to dry his hands. We have a hand towel in the bathroom and like 3 towels hanging in the kitchen, but he only uses papertowels. I assume it is some germ thing and don't say anything, but I rarely use them, really only for cat things, we have a bunch of rags for cleaning.

Yeah. Perhaps she numbered the squares? Or maybe she just relied on a Christian's innate inability to lie.

That's gross, and extra gross for a woman to suggest.

My family in Jamaica is kinda Nazi-ish about these things, and my mother re-uses ziploc bags and aluminium foil, but that's as much because they're expensive and hard to get as anything else.

I just hate when people use my paper towels as napkins. I have separate napkins. It's a thing.

Padalecki is cute, but he doesn't...affect my nervous system, or anything.

He doesn't usually, but when looking for Ackles bicep porn I stumbled across a site I'm not going to from work--something like squarehippies.com that had some stunning screencaps of Supernatural scenes and it reminded me that he's a piece of alright. Just not Ackles or crazy mad cute like Collins.

I could see that.

My children have squandered my supply of wrapping tape. I can't find a single roll or piece of clear tape (besides heavy packing tape) to wrap gifts. I used to have at least three rolls around here.

This means going out again. I don't want to go out again.
