I didn't know they still had pay toilets?

Yes. There are days when I can hear in my mind the lyrics of Bob Seger's 1980 hit "Against The Wind" "I wish I didn't know now, what I didn't know then." But alas, once the toothpaste is out of the tube, it is very difficult to put it back in. And so I sit here on the floor in my tears covered in toothpaste and the shards of my broken shelf, wondering if anything is true, or is my whole damn life a fraud?

wha?
who wants to put toothpaste back in the tube?
Is this a common and angst filled situation at your bathroom sink?

i think a thread titled "wondering if my whole damn life is a fraud" is a good one...fraud is typically a criminal offense or even a civil offense...except in that context....who be thy judge, jury, and executioner in such a case?

Oh, I believe there is a long line of people from my past who would gleefully rise to that position if given a chance.
