Hunting and Gathering

I don't make grocery lists, so I have the tendency to stock up on things I don't need. For instance, I have two bottles of mustard in my pantry right now because every time I go to the store, I think, "Do I have mustard? I'm not sure, so I'd better get some." Same with deoderant and shaving foam. Consequently, this works both ways. Yesterday, I ran out of toothpaste. I squeezed every last bit out of the tube last night, so this morning, I had to go without. I went and picked up three tubes after work today, and by next month, I'll probably have five stashed beneath my bathroom sink.
