Perfect Storm
Just left the restroom from my normal morning pee break. Completely empty restroom and no TP. As I was leaving Vince walked by on his way in. He could be the culprit. I haven't seen him walk back by yet so it is very likely #2.
stay tuned.

I'm getting closer
I know it's been a year plus since I posted so I expect no one will read this so this is really just for me. For weeks, I have been puzzled by a strange occurrence in the restroom at work. In the prime stall (next to the wall, and furthest from the urinals) most mornings I find that there are 12-18 squares of toilet paper in the corner of the stall behind the toilet. I am having a hard time understanding why this happens, and probably more importantly who does it. Who is this freak that throws toilet paper on the floor and doesn't just flush it... weird.
I've been keeping a mental tally trying to use process of elimination to pinpoint the culprit but I need to start recording it here so I don't lose track. I've been paying attention to when I see the papers and then noting who is on vacation or out of the office which means they are certainly not the perpetrators. So far it's not:
John
Jay
Me
Fuad
Unfortunately, this restroom services a large area including many folks I do not know so my investigation is going to have to get a little more invasive soon. My real hope is that I'll catch the person in the act which seems to happen sometime before 9:30am most days. As you can imagine, considering proper restroom/urinal etiquette that must be followed, this will be difficult. Regardless, I must perservere and solve this mystery.

Not a month yet
Just wanted to post something so I don't go a whole month. We just got our new camera functional so hopefully there will be some pics soon. Nothing exciting right now. Work is busy, the house is acceptable.
On Saturday went to this pretty cool event.

Twins
I think Jenn wants to post this so I'm going to beat her to it. Last night we were at Target getting a shower curtain for the newly completed bathroom and she saw a dude in the checkout line that used to teach at SUA, or so she thought. She said "Hi" and it turned out it was the dude's twin brother.
She pretty much freaked out and couldn't stop talking about it. Had to call her sister to tell her she just had her first twin moment.
Quite frankly, I can't believe that was the first one. I know of at least two other twin moments in my life beyond Amy and Jenn.
How many twin moments have you experienced?

Good Day and Constipation
So it's been a little while since I blogged. Slightly busy but also slightly scared that I would let something slip, or comments would slip, about Jenn and Amy's surprise birthday party so I was hesitant to post.
Anyway, lots to update, kitchen and bathroom particularly, but I'm going to take this time to talk about possibly the greatest thing I have done all year.
Saturday night after Jenn's party we went downtown to Garfield Suites to hang out with her family for a few hours. There is a German foreign exchange student, Lea (like the princess), that is staying with Jenn's brother. We hung out with her over Labor day weekend also and she is way fun.
Anyway, I told the classic joke that my nephew taught me. "Did you hear about the new movie, "Constipation." ... "No? It hasn't come out yet." BUBUBUBBUUFFFFFFFF.
Lea didn't quite understand the word "constipation" and some folks started to sensitively explain it when I blurted out "Verstopfung" and got the affirmative nod from Lea. Yup, with all the German I have learned it appears that the 2 things I have not forgotten are how to say "good day" and "constipation."
