Here’s a secret. I’ve been in my new place for almost a month, but I’ve yet to properly dispose of some of my trash (food). It’s not as disgusting as it seems. First, I don’t have a lot of food trash because cooking isn’t my friend; I don’t eat at my apartment a lot. Second, all the food I want to throw out is in my freezer. It’s just leftover stuff that I don’t want to re-heat and eat.
The problem is that I’m not allowed to throw food out with other trash. Where I live, food is disposed of in these monstrous blue bins. I’ve heard - I’ve yet to look - that there are disgusting little creatures living in these bins. Regardless, the area has more than its fair share of flies and the concrete is damp and sticky.
Properly disposing of food wouldn’t be such a problem if I could just chuck my trash in the bin and run away, but I can’t. I have to touch the bins. I have to open them. I think that I might die vomit.
I know it’s completely prissy behavior, but I hate bugs. I hate them so much; they make me cry. I’m currently looking for plastic gloves. As soon as I find gloves, I might endeavor …
What do you think? Would you be able to touch something with thousands of maggots (potentially) in it?
