It’s unsettling how quickly you get used to things. There aren’t any paper towels here. Strange, right?
There is a roll in the kitchen. There is (usually) a roll in the bathroom. There’s also some toilet paper, but my best investment ever (a $2 package of 84 moist tissue wipes) is seeing me through most of that.
It’s not there for when you wash your hands. It’s not there when you eat a bagel at 1400 in the afternoon. It’s not there when there’s a little smudge on the table and you need to wet a napkin to get it off. It’s not there when you eat corn on the cob and everything is sticky and buttery.
I never thought of a life without paper towels. It’s not bad; it’s just different.
It’s one of those things you get used to quickly.
