In the middle of the night last night I went into the bathroom and realized there was no toilet paper. Doug had used the bathroom before going to bed and finished the roll. There were no extra rolls under the sink. I walked into Michael's bathroom, no toilet paper in there either.
Do I-
A. Wake Doug up and yell at him?
B. Go down two flights of stairs to the basement to our storage closet and get more toilet paper? Thereby setting off the house alarm and waking up the entire house since I of course forget to turn off the alarm and the motion sensor is in the basement?
C. Hold it all night silently cursing Doug?
What is it with men and replacing toilet paper? Really, how hard is it?
The proper care and feeding of husbands

You know something, Jodi? I was going to pick one of your alternatives.. but I think it is safer for me to say nothing and back slowly out of the room.

Jodi, I need to know one thing: do you load so the paper comes over the top, or falls behind the roll? You’d be at home in my apartment, where some part of my brain always knows how many rolls of toilet paper I’m down to (never below 3!). I would have woken him up…

D. Use Kleenex ™ and then beat Doug over the head with the empty TP roll in the morning.
When I was a kid my mom would get really fed up with my sister and me because we’d leave the last one or two pieces (you know, the ones that are mostly glue) on the roll and when she’d complain, tell her that it wasn’t empty.
Funny thing is, a couple weeks ago I used the bathroom at my mom’s and the roll was down to those last couple pieces and hadn’t been replaced.

wipe it up with a towel, then make sure you wash it when you wake up. then, DON’T replace the roll and wait until he has to go…make sure you leave the house and he has to walk around with his pants down. Then, run and take a picture and post it on your blog.
haha.

When I was pregnant with my daughter I had to use the toilet during the night. I wasn’t very awake but became so after I fell into the pot because the seat was up.
Of course, all three men blamed each other for my soaking, wet, pregnant *ss.
I’m with the Ambassador. I would’ve woken him up.

I totally would have woken him up and made him go get it, and then yelled at him…. Wayne constantly does this to me… 2nd I would have used some baby wipes as an alternative.. Done that before too.

As for SMID’s recollection of events that night, I plead the Gonzales (meaning there are two or three versions of that night, all of which are true). As for your husband, I would ask him why he uses paper!

My husband will actually get out a new roll and not install in the holder, but put it on the counter. How lazy is that? I personally always choose the silent fuming.
