Posted at the end of this blog is a photograph of me holding my own personal wad of toilet paper. An interesting thing, the toilet paper. Here in the Philippines, public restrooms (“comfort rooms” or “CR” in the local vernacular) in places such as shopping malls do not supply toilet paper. The idea is to bring your own toilet paper when you make a visit to such a comfort room.
Well, I learned this lesson the hard way.
After a trip to the CR while at a shopping mall, I said to Desiree, “Des,
there was no toilet paper in the bathroom. I had to be creative to get back out
of there again.”
Desiree laughed. “You have to take your own paper
when you go. I forgot to tell you that part.”
“Yes, you did.”
Lesson learned. Desiree and I immediately stopped
at a store and purchased a small pack of tissue. In the future, I will always
have a modest wad of paper with me.

I always carry a small packet of baby wipes in case they don’t have a bum gun. Quit paper several years ago. Wipes work better, as paper is made with a grit (clay).
