27 ply toilet paper

By Shebee // Uncategorized // 8 Comments

Two weeks ago Pats, an old family friend who is very awesome, came to me with what she was convinced was a revelation:

Pats: I have decided that sad people blog more often.

Me: Hey?

Pats: This one chick I know is living proof. She has decided that she’s happy and in love, so she doesn’t need to blog as often.

Me: That’s awesome! I wish I was like that!

Pats: er… Sheen, you’re the only blog I read…

Me…

Pats: ……..

Me: OH!

= = = =

So, I wish it was true. It would be rad if that were the reason I hardly blog. Thing is, as happy and in love as I really am, I’ve just been dealing with life criseseses left, right and centre.

Work is still insane, that hasn’t changed, but it’s not bad things – it’s just busy things.

Jon’s dad is very ill. Although it seems he’s back on the mend now, it’s been a scary few weeks. I’ve been very worried about him, but more so for Jon’s mom and mostly for Jon. My love has not been a happy chappy, and who can blame him?

My mom. She’s not in a good place and I worry about her daily. I wish I wasn’t so far, and at the same time I’m relieved that I am, and then I feel guilty. It’s a rabid and nasty force field of a cycle made of viscious: worried, guilty, relieved, more guilty, worried.

But I’m not blogging to bitch about any of that right now, I’m blogging to tell you something super important!

Jon and I were discussing a grocery list last night and things changed in a different course, verbally.

Me: How are we for condoms?

Jon: we’re okay.

Me: … We need more condoms.

Jon: and toilet paper.

Me: what?! We just bought toilet paper.

Jon: you go through more toilet paper than anyone else I’ve ever met in my whole life.

Me: It’s because I use lots. I’m scared my finger goes through the stuff, so I wrap and I wrap and I wrap.

Jon: Wow. Things I only ever wished I could discuss with my girlfriend…

Me: Shut up, it’s only toilet paper.

Jon: Yes, the 27 ply kind.

I love our relationship. Jon teases me constantly. And even though both of us are under tremendous amounts of pressure and stress, I love that we have each other to use as comic relief.

On another note, it looks like I’m expanding my team at work again. From 1 to four in under six months. *fistpunch* Yeah bitch!

I’m so happy I can go to A and tell him that I am not the only one with the finger fear or the preventative measures taken i.e. using wrap and wrap and wrap…

Don’t be silly, Billy, put a condom on your willy!
Be wise, condomise!
Don’t be a fool, wrap your tool!
If you like it then you gotta put a ‘dome on it!
If it’s not on it, then it’s not in it!

I’m well trained, dude.
