It's beginning to look alot like grand larceny

Well, I've been trashcanKnapped.

My trashcan is gone and I haven't received a ransome note. I can safely assume that my trashcan is gone baby gone. This is not good. I "lost" a recycling bin about two months ago. I am starting to see a pattern.

I don't understand how this happened! The trashcan is clearly labeled with the street name and number. It just didn't sprout legs and decide to go for a walk or roll...whatever the case may be!

Since it was trash day today, I drove around my neigbOOrhood searching for my trashcan. If I saw my trashcan I was going to kidnap it back. What's mine is mine. What would the thief do? Call the police and say that someone stole back their trashcan? I think not.

I think I probably raised the hackles of the neighborhood watch! I am sure they were thinking....why is the person who I think is the nanny/contractor driving around and slowing down near the recycle bins. Are they trying to take my alumninum cans?

Anyway, after my unsuccessful canhunt, I went to Home Depot to purchase a new trashcan. They only had wastebaskets.

Why would anyone do this? Does my neigbor need a new trashcan and decided to salvage the one next door. Are their bands of little vagrants stealing trashcans for nefarious purposes? Did aliens abduct my trashcan?

Note to skunky trashcan stealing varmint of a neigbor! I am going to put a webcam up and find our who you are! I will not rest till I have justice!

My Christmas list

I wasn't fired today. Thank goodness. They confuse me so.

Anyway, it was time to leave and I jogged over to McPherson Square since it was so cold.

I saw and heard alot of weird things on my ride home today. First, I saw a woman who had an enormous broach on her head. It was definitely a broach...not a scrunchie or things of that sort placed ever so delicately on her head. I wondered how it was attached to her head but I am too polite to ask such a thing.

Secondly, this lady next to me chatted up another and discussed Christmas gifts. She said her husband was a bit strange. He created a "WISH LIST" and asked for extravagant things like Plasma screens and tickets to Bowl games OH my! Regardless of what he wants, she said he is just going to get one pair of NIKEs. Regardless of what she says, I feel sorry for this man.

I always wanted a pony. Perhaps, if I were friends with this lady, she might get me a pair of Nikes too.

I am glad that I am home now.
