Don't Recycle

Tuesday, June 5, 2007

Today was quite the adventurous day, full of dust and discoveries. We woke up bright and early this morning (9:30 am), and saw a note left for us from our mom. It was the dreaded note "Take the Newspapers to the curb." Ahhh, it was recyclables day, so in a quick panic, we took the newspapers to the curb. We walked back in and then noticed the stacks and stacks of magazines, 'what were we to do?' We decided to make a phone call...we were instructed to get rid of all the magazines as well, so out to the back side of the house we went (where more magazines resided). We found the rest of the magazines that we were suppose to get rid of, and we lifted up the plastic box and it busted, right on top of the other box that soon there after busted as well, plastic was everywhere, guess that's what the Arizona sun does. So, to our next adventure...

we decided that we were going to have to go to the recycling center to dump the magazines, so we dumped all the magazines in the back of Tricia's car. We decided that we needed a break, so we went to get some water from the garage, and discovered the DI bags, and then decided that we needed to clean the garage. We then realized that there was more stuff to take to DI inside, so we walked inside and decided to clean the playroom. We went to get rags in the laundry room, and then decided to start in the laundry room. We then looked at the kitchen, and then thought, well, maybe there, and finally we looked at the family room and came to the final conclusion that that was the real starting place. So that's where we started and cleaned until the playroom closet was neatly, but fully stacked. We didn't quite reach the garage, but that will be left for another day...

The adventure continues when Tricia came home from work, we had to run to the Recycling Center, and then to Walmart. It was 10 o'clock at night and we thought that we knew where we were going, to Prince and Fairview of course. So we got in the car and left, while looking for the Recycling Center we found ourselves in an alleyway. It was dark, late at night, and a bit creepy; as we were passing through the alleyway, a light came on and we thought we were dead. It was just a sensored light, but it freaked us out nonetheless. We decided to make a phone call, found the actual location, and made it alive. Then to Walmart...we were getting the couple of items that we needed made our way out, Tricia put the car in reverse, and all of a sudden, "BANG!" There was a body on the back of the car, but our car never moved...Blake Richins. We almost died laughing after we almost died trying to figure out what had just happened. We made it home alive, and that's where the day ends. Until next time...
