A few months back **Yepmas** got up in the middle of the night for a glass of orange juice. I found the over half full carton of juice in the cupboard the next morning. :rolleyes: Then there’s the usual fridge findings: Book Keys Cat Cordless Phone Dishes We both take turns at that, though. 😃 ---

I will not buy this tobacconist, it is scratched. Maybe your body is telling you something. Like… you need foil? ---

Once I poured orange juice into a bowl instead of a glass. I also drank it all. I didn’t notice the bowl/glass change until I put it into the sink and noticed it was larger, a different shape, and weighed more. ---

I hate it when I ask someone a question and then completely zone out and forget to listen when they answer me and then have to ask them to repeat it. :smack: I have also been known to put trash in the washer and laundry in the trashcan. ---

Yes, you’re clearly going crazy, bananas, and the reason is obvious. Your not supposed to eat foil. You’re supposed to put it in your hat. Duh. ---

Yeah, I know what you mean. I once slept with my girlfriend’s younger sister and tied up the dog in the yard instead of the other way around. Is it hotter in the summer or the country? Do you ride the bus to work or take a lunch? ---

Does the Hershey’s Kiss gold foil work as well as regular foil, or are there subtle differences? ---
