One to go

The girl announces, you know those cardboard rolls inside paper towels? I need two of them by Friday.

This coming from a girl who thought nothing of not running the dishwasher the 5 days I was gone. Is the logic completely escaping her?

You know, it takes a while to use up all the paper towels to get to the cardboard rolls. They only get used when there is a big mess to clean up and throw away, like when the cats throw up. You might have wanted to be on top of this a while ago.

Crestfallen, she agrees and figures she can just roll up stiff paper for a roll.

But, by sheer coincidence, a near dozen eggs topple to the floor when she cooks some more eggs.

Though I don't know if she'll get a second roll by Friday.
