I win!

General December 17th, 2004

Two days ago, I put out garbage like normal before I left for work. The leaves from raking this weekend were in bags on the curb. My trash company will pickup the lawn bags if they have stickers on them I purchased from the trash company. It sucks, but it’s how they get their money for yard waste. I had more bags than I had stickers, so I just tagged the ones on the outside of the pile. I figured they can take what they will, and if they leave (heh, get it, leaf any…) bags I’ll just get more stickers.

And then I drove into work and noticed gas on Green street was cheap… $1.67/gallon. (It’s sad that I think that’s cheap…) I figured with finals week ending and the holidays here, prices are going to shoot up soon. I needed to fill up anyway for my trek home this weekend, so I stopped and filled up.

On the way home from work, I noticed gas had shot up to 1.85. I had chosen…wisely. And then, when I drove into my driveway, I noticed all the leaf bags had been picked up; even the ones without stickers.

I win!
