The Trash Fairy
It took about two weeks and a pile of full trash bags near my door before I discovered the Trash Fairy. I search diligently outside to find a trash bin with no luck at all. So I decided to walk up the street and just see if my apartment building shared one with another or just figure out what to do with my trash. One thing I noticed is that outside every apartment building are three mesh bags or other kind of 22 gallon receptacle each containing plastic, glass, and paper recycled goods. So I figured that out and separated my rubbish accordingly into the mesh receptacles I found outside, but still did not know what to do with the real trash that can't be recycled... I think for a bit and decide to just leave it by the road and see what happens. When I come home from dinner I noticed another bag of someone else's refuse so I figure I am doing it right, and in the morning the mesh receptacles were emptied and the two bags of garbage by the road were gone. My street is so quiet that I can hear my neighbor across the street's tv so if a vehicle was used to haul it away I'd notice, but nothing was heard. That's when I decided that trash fairies do exist. Just leave your trash on the road and kindly separate your recyclables and the trash fairy whisks them away. I have yet to spot one, but when I do I'll take a picture and post it here.
