Garbage Juice

I spent the weekend working my ass of taking out trash for a total of 19 hours this weekend. I led my team of three underlings and we patrolled crowds, liberating trash cans of their [frankly] disgusting contents. I got covered in a plethora of liquid substances, including warm beer, rancid lemonade (with lemons! yum), charcoal water, and secretions coming from rotted meat. Fun shit, right? This combination of nasty-smelling, uniform-covering liquids has been coined 'garbage juice', and let me tell you, it is fragrant.

I was covered from head to toe by the end of each day, and despite vigorous showers, I still feel dirty.

However! I made new friends, got closer to old ones, got a bunch of military recruiter swag, had a Monster chugging contest, and wing-walked an actual F-18 fighter jet. Uh yeah, super bad ass.

Anyway, this is a picture of me and my buddy having an epic stand-off with these large neon rubber bands that we were using to hold the trash bags in place. I'm the tiny one (duh), and dude, those rubber bands hurt!!




Hope your weekend was as epic as mine, but I doubt it ;)
