12 Mega rolls of Charmin

I haven’t written for a while. Mom used to say, “If you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all.”

They say the average person makes 10’s of thousands of decisions every day. I haven’t heard any statistics about the average ratio of good vs. bad decisions.

Friday after work I decided to ride my bike to drop off my cleaning. That was a good call – beautiful weather.
On my way home I decided to stop by Krogers and pick up a few groceries. Good call.

While in the store I decided to buy 12 mega rolls of Charmin. Seemed like a good call until I realized it didn’t fit in any of the bags on my bike.

I decided to try riding home with one hand on the handlebars and the 12 mega rolls tucked under the other arm. Hmmm, after-work traffic, on the bike, one handed. Seemed like a bad idea.

I decided if I fell that on the way down I would work it out so I fell on the Charmin.

I couldn’t decide what exactly the passers-by were thinking when they saw a guy pedaling along with 12 mega rolls of toilet paper tucked under his arm, but I made it home without incident, so it turned out to be a good call, since there was no toilet paper remaining in the house.

I can’t speak to the other 59,994 decisions I made on Friday, but I think these turned out ok.
