Day 30 - Blues of Another Kind

October 23, 2007
No pictures due to no progress. I could show you mud again, but what's the point? You've already seen that. The only newsworthy item is that my bulk trash was never picked up. The customer service agent told me that the route was checked off, and that it was also "verified." Therefore, it's not possible that my trash could still be on the curb. I assured her that it was. When did I put it there? Why, Sunday evening - before the pick-up start on Monday. And my neighbor's pile was there then too - and no, it wasn't picked up either. Yes I am sure - I'm looking at it out the window now. Was there anything strange in the pile? Not if old wood is strange for bulk trash. What are my options? Drop-off point, you say? No, I don't have truck. And even if I could fit all that wood into my poor old Camry's trunk, I wouldn't do it.

Bulk trash blues - I guess we really have been forgotten. At least by one of the city's service agencies. I guess they don't like driving down mud-logged morasses either. I can't say I blame them, but I can say they're responsible...just not responsive. 30 days since the concrete came up, no signs of life...
