Recycled Drunkards

People who know me know that I sleep early (maybe hella early, almost elderly early) and that I'm usually in bed by 10pm (11pm the latest) and I wake up around 6:30am every morning, wash up, work out, eat breakfast, walk their (my roommies) dogs, shower... All before lunch time.

Last night, as I went to bed, my coupled roommies were smoking weed and bought some drinks at a nearby liquor store... So that's pretty much whatever to me so I head to sleep. And the things they watch on Netflix or TV is just... Meh.

This morning, I wake up and I was going to boil eggs to make an egg salad sandwich for breakfast and what do I see? A TRASHED KITCHEN. Sigh. I understand when you smoke weed, you're effing hungry and I understand when you drink, things end up in places that you didn't even realize... But seriously? Every single plate, bowl, utensil, pan, pot, cup are all used?! ONLY BY TWO PEOPLE?! And they were just piled up all over the sink and around the kitchen.

I can't make breakfast now. So, I end up washing every damn thing because I need ONE plate, ONE spoon, ONE small bowl for breakfast but no. EVERY DAMN THING IN THE KITCHEN IS DIRTY.

But from their drinking, I have two more large bottles (one pint) of Red Stripe. Now I have seven bags of beer bottles that have been collecting in the utility closet for almost two months now and it piled up fast during the month of December while my best friend was away in Hawaii. (Thanks to her boyfriend and our neighbor, German.)

So tomorrow or Wednesday, I should be able to bring (transportation: walking) all seven bags to the recycling shack near Stater Bros. (a low-down yet expensive grocery store) and I'll leave the plastics and aluminum cans in the utility closet. With this amount of bottles, how much will it get me? If the last time we went, we got $10 out of four bags of aluminum cans... I'm sure seven bags of heavy beer bottles will get me... At least $30? I'd like $40 but I won't stretch it.

And plus, it's been almost two months and it's just sitting there, lonely, wanting to be recycled for the good of the environment! So, as a good samaritan, I will do my deed and take it all and turn it into some good cash because my wallet is hungry, too. I got to feed myself and my wallet, my furry friends.

I guess there is a good side to living with stoned drunkards. MONNEH IN ME POCKET! :)

AND, I'm helping the planet. ♡
