Your Roll of Toilet Paper

A respected philosopher who was not "Randy Macho Man Savage" once was quoted as saying: "Life is like a roll of toilet paper (TP), the closer it comes to the end, the faster it goes. Lately the significance of that wise quote has not been lost on me.

I can get into sooooo many lines here such as can we bring two rolls for a shitty life? But I won't.

Any way you cut it, life is a game of your best plans turning to doo-doo and those pesky unplanned adventures threatening to do the same. But hey, no one ever said life would be fair or you can have extra TP. The best you can hope for is the girl in the next stall over sliding some under the partition.

As I approach 63, I do consider the so called winter of my life and most importantly-can I take any TP with me to the other side? Will I need it? Can you take it with you? If I find out, I will get back to you on that. I mean hey,  whats' more important the existence of an afterlife or TP to handle it?

If by this time you are thinking Cyrsti didn't really have anything to write about- that's not true.

I was going to get into earth shattering problems of why all of the sudden stylish clip earrings show up after I got my ears pierced or just why did  Lana Turner look so damn good in the original version of "The Postman Rings Twice". (above)

I'm leaving it to you to decide because my mind is worn out from all this heavy duty philosophizing..

See you later, I'm headed to the rest room to steal more quotes off the wall!
