I spent a stupid amount of time waiting for my turn at the reverse vending machine. It broke down just as the guy in front of me was finishing, so I brought my bottles back home.

People my age are taking their kids or dogs out for a walk in the morning. I’m out here walking around with empty bottles.

Anyway, I saw this cigarette butt on the pile of snow/ice and thought it looked like lungs. A seemingly drunk guy was peeing behind the pile.

The administrator lady told me the taromatas (RVM) wouldn’t work for a while and asked if I wanted to wait. I said no and left because I also needed to pee, and I wasn’t going to mark over the seemingly drunk guy’s territory. I didn’t want that kind of smoke this morning.
