I must be on Candid Camera. We put out our recycling bin last night like we do every week. I heard the truck pull up at 5:00 this morning, just like always. I went out to bring in the bin...and the bundled papers were still in it. The only evidence that they'd been here at all was that our bin lid (admittedly old) was in the middle of the street, in three pieces. When they were open I called to ask WTF? and the woman said she'd send someone by. That was hours ago and no one has come, but the bin keeps blowing away. I called again and now it may be tomorrow before they show. This is what my life has been reduced to--chasing a trash bin down our street. That's what happens when you work at home, I guess.
Thankfully it's Friday, which brings with it our sacred weekly ritual of Happy Hour.
