Murphy and Newton

It's a popular Murphy's Law, which says that "When a small object is dropped on the floor, it rolls to the least accessible corner"
Newton's Law of gravitation says that all objects/matter have a gravitational field proportional to their mass( and inversely proportional to the distance).

Exploring into Murphy's law, least accessible corner invariably has more number of objects, or sometimes one big object under which this small piece rolls. Massive/Many object(s) mean a stronger gravitational field at that particular area compared to other places which are better accessible(open places with less objects)....hence this object rolls into that corner, as it experiences more gravitational force from that particular corner..


So, am I in the right direction of relating these two?
 
What you say is true, but the effect is so small as to be overcome by other forces, such as:
The gravitational pull of the moon.
How long it's been since you last clipped your toenails
Whether your car is red or black
etc.
