Garbage Rant: I always forget about Labor Day

Ah yes, yesterday was Labor Day, a day which many rejoice for the sole reason that they do not have to report to work. It is a day of relaxation and rest, filled with family and fun. But for some of us, particularly those of us with poor memories, Labor Day can be 24 hours of mistake ridden hell. Let me share quickly with you one of my mistakes. I live in Eastown, and my trash usually gets picked up Tuesday Morning. Now I look forward to this day because, as a makle college student living in a house with four other male college students, my trash is quite rank and disgusting. Imagine my delight when I walked out my door this morning bright and early for work, only to be crushed by the sight of my trash canstill full and in fact leaking out the sides. Yes, I had forgotten that Labor Day extendes oublic services like trash pickup ahead one day, and for this mental slip, I now must suffer one more day of stink.
