Dangerously Low Level TP

 This is not my story, it is Bossmans, but I do believe it is true. Because I know Dan, and the things he says and I can see this happening. I asked bossmans permission in telling his story on my blog and was told it was fine, its to strange/funny not to share.

 Dan is a regular customer, he comes in 2-3 times a week most weeks. He lives in an apartment near by and walks to the grocery store to get cereal and cat food and just get out. When he is done, he will stop in to our store, for some soda, and to cool off, warm up, or just be away from his house I suppose.

 Dan is simple. I am not sure what, exactly is wrong with him, but he's not all there. He comes in and asks very politely for a diet coke. He will drink diet coke upon diet coke while watching TV (flipping channels if he's allowed the remote) and several times, upwards of 20 on occasion he will excuse himself to use the bathroom. He is normally in there for a while. Customers have had to use the ladies room, because Dan has been hogging  the mens so long.

 So I guess a few nights ago, Dan let bossman know that the TP in the men's room was getting low. Bossman went in there later (after things were clear) and there was a good amount. For a man's restroom it was a very good amount, and would last about 2 weeks or so. The roll was not changed.

 Well then last night Dan came in. His normal routine of diet cokes and bathroom breaks. I guess after his first bathroom break Dan went to get Bossman, "Excuse me sir, but your toilet paper in the Men's bathroom is getting dangerously low" he insisted. Bossman looked and there was still enough to last a while, being that it is a men's room and they only wipe now and again.... Later when Dan excused himself to go use the restroom, he bypassed the mens room and the dangerously low level of TP and opted to go in the ladies room where apparently the levels were less of a risk.



 This just makes me wonder what Dan would think of Dollar Generals "compare to scotts" brand Toilet paper? I bet he would have considered it "dangerously thin" I know I did.

Rapture

 I never knew, until I think Wednesday this week, that Saturday was the "end of the world" or the rapture or whatever people are saying its supposed to be. I think its funny that someone has said the world was going to end, and now the day before people are just taking notice. I mean last week, no one mentioned a thing. This week the whole place is going crazy. Either with people freaking out, or people making fun of the whole idea. Oh well, no point freaking out about it if you ask me. If its happening its happening. I highly doubt I am one of the ones who would be chosen to be pulled up at this point. I believe in God, and I do think I will go to heaven but I do not think I live my life closely enough to what God would want, to be taken up before the 7 year wrath and all that. I guess that is a horrible thing to admit, but I really think that very few people would be taken at this point.  So the end of the world upon us, I made some good money at work tonight. I was also ...

Its not always 50/50

 Sometimes one person has to hold up more weight than the other does. Lately I feel as though I am that person holding the extra weight. Lately I have been wishing I was not that person. I feel like I am being spread a bit too thin... I also feel like no matter how many times I try to explain myself, it does not matter.  So I will just keep waiting, and hopefully eventually someone will come and take a few books off of my stack. Take a load off. Help me out. Chip in. You get it? I am sure you do. Now if only other people did as well.  God doesnt give you more than you can handle. I wonder sometimes if He thinks the load he's giving me is being more evenly distributed than it is... Maybe he can review my case :)

The Lady In Red

  T he Frisco festival was this weekend. Fun times. Free rides, well this year half the rides were free. A band playing live and just fun all around. We always go of course, any time anything is free, were there!  Since we are not cool Destiny went with some friends and not us. Bailey was staying the night with a buddy so the 2 girls that were home, I told could bring a friend... Fun times.  At one point they were waiting in line for a slide/funhouse ride, after a certain point of waiting in line they were finally up to the part with the sign: At the bottom the sign says "If you are in the red sorry you cannot ride the ride"  Hannah is standing there, and she is looking quite concerned after a while... She looks at me and she says "mama, Lauren cannot ride this ride." then she points to the sign.  Oh yes, Lauren is VERY MUCH so over the green line... Heck Lauren is taller than Hannah so I am thinking what is your deal girl??!  Hannah then looks ...
