now that i think i am safe, i can tell the story--my last garbage night. I dare throw away a jar of pickles and some tomato sauce. And a lot of frozen food. Wrapped in documents that have trace-able references to me. How do you recycle rugs anyway? I figure the government investigation will take at least a week, leaving time for my getaway. How are you supposed to leave this country and abide by the trash regulations? 5 bags of garbage. Plus anything remotely plastic in a gigantic bag. I think you had to be there to appreciate this effort. I am proud of myself. Thank you internet for letting me express myself.
