I would actually say "waste basket" more often than "trash can" for receptacles of thrown away stuff that are not in the kitchen.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Seriously. Kristen and I are painting one of the walls with satin black and cream thick stripes, then doing a chair rail with cream on top. I'm keeping to the red velvet/wrought iron furniture and accessories.
It's totally Tim Burton.

You put things in the trash. By putting them in the garbage can. And then taking out the trash. Which is picked up by the garbage truck.
Heh. I am Brenda.
Allyson, the walls in my new apartment are many color--living room is pumpkin and yellow-orange, bedroom is a blue (that I don't actually like, but am too lazy to repaint now that there's furniture and stuff) and the office has only one wall painted bright lime green.

Okay, good points. I am not one to disturb napping munchkins. Envy them, yes. Disturb them, nuh-uh.
