Collecting Trash Is Harder Than I Thought




I underestimated how difficult it would be to collect trash every single day of my life.  I figured, meh... just put the dirty, stinky, moldy coffee cups into a bag.

No big deal.

Wrong.

I tried collecting cups every single day for about a week.  I now realize that I can't always carry garbage with me everywhere I go...kinda nasty.

Now I have to tweak my methods to accommodate for my lifestyle.  I highly doubt that I will ever want to pick cups up on the way to a party, or even on the way to work so I'm dedicating 30 minutes every day to pick up cups.  This way I don't have to pick up cups if I'm running late for work or to meet a friend.

I may not use these 30 minute blocks everyday.  Maybe I won't feel like bringing my camera out in the rain one day...so I would just bank that 30 minutes for the next day or the day after that.

Now that I have a Nexus S I will start posting more shots to the blog as I find them.

I will start picking the cups up again June 1st.
