Don't be jealous, but this guy thinks I'm hot.
Yesterday I busted butt to mow the lawn and get all the yardwork on the curb for pick up because it was trash and yard waste pick up day. I like adventure, so I mow on the DAY OF pick up. I'm crazy like that.
I finished the yards and went in to warm up with some coffee. Then the trash guys came by. Then the yard waste guys. I suppose SOME PEOPLE in this neighborhood think I just sit in the window and watch the goings of the day. Really I don't. I sit in front of the tv all day. But at the moment the yard waste guys came by, indeed, I WAS watching their every move. And it's a good thing too. Because - now a 6'3" female Columbo - it was just as I suspected.
I've been dodging trash cans on trash day due to what I thought was the wind blowing them out in the streets. But today wasn't windy, and I watched JoeTrash guy (a distant cousin of Joe Plumber, I'm sure) empty HALF of the leaves out of my cans and drop them...IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. Really? I looked up the street and the ones they got back on the curb, they'd thrown so, they were on their sides, easily accessible to roll into the streets.
I gave them a few seconds to see what they'd done and correct it. But NOT. So, I waltzed out there in my awesome lawn mowing attire. They were a few houses down, but saw me and waved. I motioned to my garbage cans and then waved with a slight tone of "eff you" and then started walking the cans back up the driveway.
And that's when one of those son of bitches CAT CALLED me. What the heck just happened. Then they all laughed and drove away.
It's been a while since I'd been cat-called. So, later, I got a good giggle about it. But at present, I was still mad- because I am pretty sure that was a sarcastic cat call! Not a "hey lady, you're smokin hot" but more of a "we're going to whistle at you and then laugh" type of a deal.
I showed them. Idiots have their number on the side of the truck in like 3,500 pt. font. And since I can read and all, I went in and called and told on them.
Nanny nanny.
That's how I roll.


Did I tell you today that I LOVE you and how you ROLL?

In defense of Solid Waste Services employees (because technically, I'm one too), you were probably the most entertainment they had all day! And I have no doubt that their cat call was sincere. :)
Bah ha ha ha ha!
I nearly spwed coffee all over the monitor reading this! GAWD was that funny!
