Come get your trash

Well,
Maybe I am either getting older and grumpier or my expectations for what I pay for are not being met. Your probably wondering WTH, not weight thickness hardness, for those at work who read me might find funny, in any case, I live in Pasadena and around this time I feel cranky because I am going to have send off a check for $2800 which I must also do in February. So when I go outside and see that my street has not been swept for about a month and then after making 2 calls in the past 2 weeks not a thing has been done and then finally seeing the street sweeper pass by and leave the same mess slightly moved over by a foot, that just broke the camels back. I sent out a letter and later that same day I come home to see the street has been swept. I feel so relieved to know that we are taken care of by our city managers.
I guess street maintenance is one of those things that we just take for granted until it is not being done and I guess its better to not think about trash until it becomes a problem. I am just relieved to know that its gone until next time. Now its the cars that park overnight that must be re-addressed.
Yesterday I went to Shakey's for lunch and it was tasty, a coworker who is pregnant last week, meaning last week and not that she became pregnant last week had a craving or more of a want to go to Shakey's so we did and it was delish, mojos, chicken, pizza, pasta, corn, mashed taters/gravy, and some soda pop, life is good.
Kobe is running low on food so I had to go to Sam's Club and get him some vittles. I got some soda pop, grape jelly, soup (for my sore throat), and a bag of Halls throat lozenges.
