Gravity Droppings from the Sky: Zombie Garbage

Zombie Garbage

Last night I decided to re-watch Shaun of the Dead. Good movie, good laughs, good gore. My husband has trouble understanding the bristish accent, and I love to see him squint just trying his damndest to see the accent better. Right after the movie ended I went straight to bed, knowing full well my mind would remain wrapped around the premise of the movie. I ended up dreaming about zombies. The funny thing was it was a combination of the zombie and hurricane issue(s)
My dream had me locked in a school, with some frat type guys who ordered lots and lots of pizza. Extra large pizza. Now who in the sam hell delivers pizza when there are zombies walking the earth and houses are flooded from the hurricane? And worst of all the garbage was 5 boxes high, and wasn't thrown away.

This whole thing got me thinking harder about garbage. Our garbage must be separated from food, to recycling, to actual "garbage" I have about 4 cans of garbage sitting in my house all serving a purpose.



Gray box-Newspapers and paper items
Blue Box-all other recyclables (soap bottles, plastic containers, pop cans.....)
Food Box- all stinky food items go in here
Garbage box- all the left overs from recycling.



I need a whole new house just to store this shit because garbage collection is once every two weeks. Recycling is once a week, but my main concern is the GARBAGE. That's what smells. I've seen myself hold on to recycling materials for over a month and be fine and dandy like ribbon candy. But the garbage starts to liquify, and breed monster horse flies. These flies are like the size of a small bee. I can here them buzzing around downstairs and upstairs. And then a loud TICK TICK TICK, smashing themselves into the damn windows. It's like someone's taking little pebbles and throwing them at the windows, beckoning them to come outside, and rehearse Romeo and Juliet.



The funniest thing is, we have the bizarre workings of Fight Club going on here. Brad Pitt steals fat from the lypo department, turns it into soap and sells it back to those women with the fat asses.

The garbage man takes our garbage (food garbage) turns it into compost and sells it back to us.

Or am I just angry, is our food stuffs nothing more than that of the Lion King? Is this just the circle of Life?

I think most garbage ends up buried in a giant whole somewhere. Then it either rots or just sits there forever.

It goes to a landfill.

Some genius thought it would be fantastic to bury some garbage because it would turn to soil, but they compacted the garbage so much that nothing got into speed up the process of decomposition.

I am not sure why I remember that from highschool. Why oh why can't I remember the useful stuff, like spelling and reading???

You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be really something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and extremely broad for me. I’m looking forward to your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!
