So this will probably be too much information, but provide a lovely little insight into my family...
In my family, we have, on more than one occasion, discussed how many squares of toilet paper are needed when going to the bathroom. This comes up because when we were growing up my dear sweet dad tried to teach us to only use 4 squares. 4 SQUARES. I love the earth as much as the next person, but seriously kids, I think we can all see the problem with using only 4 squares of toilet paper. So we just recently brought this conversation back up, don't ask me how or why, it just happens, and we learned that Grammie, the matriarch of the family, is where this little guideline must have come from, because not only does she and my father adhere to these rules, but my Uncle Travis does as well!! So more power to my paper saving loved ones, but I won't be jumping on this bandwagon anytime soon.
Here's what made me think of it today. I have a stuffed up nose, and this morning asked Caleb to hand me some toilet paper so I could blow my nose. Mr. Johnson handed me one square of toilet paper. When I gave him the look and asked for more, he accused me of hating the earth. So I made do with what he gave me and it did not go well. So he handed me two more squares, which again were quickly used up and disposed of. At which time he handed me one more square... making it 4 total. 4 SQUARES. Aaaaah, the irony. The ridiculousness that is the Corbin gene pool is slowly seeping into his blood stream... VICTORY IS MINE!!

Calebcourtney, I must confess I lied about using four squares. . . I was afraid i would be dispossessed (depossessed? repossessed?)
