i'm seriously considering stealing my neighbor's recycling bin
okay, go ahead...call me a hypocrite. i will never deny it. but here is my justification...
our neighbor, janet, just sold her house. the guy that bought it has rented it out. but the new family has not moved in yet. when i shared my evil plan with my friend kate last night, she said it was okay, because if the new family wants to recycle they can order a bin when they arrive. besides, how do i know but that happened to us before we moved in? maybe it is kind of an intitiation to moving in to the neighborhood. should i deprive someone of the proper west green welcome? i mean, who am i to change a long-standing tradition in this neighborhood? shouldn't i show some respect to those who have gone before and established such a fine tradition?
yes, i've gone way to far.
no, my new bin has not arrived yet. but, if it ever does, i could offer it to the new neighbors. and if they don't want it, i could recycle twice as much. see, the environment would win too!
yes, i need a life.

post a commentBummer on not getting your new recycling bin yet. I have a question for you. You may know that I'm going to India this summer. On the way back, my flight has a long layover in London. I already talked to Tim and he said that he would be out of town at a retreat or something. He didn't mention if you were going with him. If you happen to not be it would be great to see you. I think we'll be there on August 3 and leaving on August 4. I'll know for sure when our flight itineraries get e-mailed to us. Let me know what you think when you get a chance!
