Well OF COURSE you need to call Facilities Management and ask them to remove everyone except Windy (and maybe Gusty). They won’t think any less of you, I swear.

Sniffie and the Florida Furkids — We have to submit requests for help online. When/if I do that, I’ll take a snapshot of it to post. It’ll be bizarre, I’m sure.

Don — Awesome, Don! I love all those! And we’re getting closer and closer to having seven bags. Someone put a giant clear one (like garbage bag-sized) on Windy’s tree, on the first branch. I’m sure someone who reads the blog put it there. If it’s still there this morning, I’ll post it.

Gusty! I love it! Won't be long before the bags have as many names as Snow White's dwarfs: Windy, Gusty, Flappy, Slappy, Snappy, Burlappy, and Whip! Don’s last blog post..Foster & Adoption "Saga"

Can you record the call when you ask for the bags to be removed but for Windy and Gusty to stay? Um….not that we expect an amusing response or anything……

Regan — Har! Could you just see that? At least I’d be giving them a story to tell their families when they get home.

SewDucky — LMAO. Why can I imagine that conversation actually happening so easily?

Lauren — It was pretty severe. We lost some stuff at the house, but got back one of our garbage bins that had our address written on it. Now I just have to buy a new recycling container. Oh, the joy.

Wow, 60 mile per hour winds. We're lucky if their close to 15, except during the hurricanes, and even then we grab our inner tubes and float down the street. Lauren’s last blog post..Best & Worst Pizza Places Exposed: Close to Home

You know it's like Windy and Gus are all over there and being happy and then these bags are jealous and make their own clique and are over in their tree being all like "Look at those two. Who do they think they are?" "inorite? As if." "Well whatever. We'll be all cool over here in our tree, snazzed out in new bag form and Gus can keep that trash Windy." Yes, I have too much time on my hands. SewDucky’s last blog post..Shopping!

Of course I dare you! And you should most defiantely film yourself asking them. "would you mind removing these bags, but not that one. it's name is windy" Regan’s last blog post..Girl Scout Cookies

feefifoto — I’m well-prepared for the stare I’m gonna get. And possibly the knowledge that my face will be posted down at their shop, labeled ‘Lunatic.’

Mrs C. — Awww, holding handles. What a cute thought. I can’t confirm what kind of bags they are. Interesting because they’re so close where I can see them. But I do know one of them is cheap. It’s split in two already and it only took a couple days. Lightweight. It took Windy months to do that.

Babs beetle — Horray!

brooke — Oh, honey, I’m not taking dates. I’d need a spreadsheet to keep track and I’m just not that organized.

MA Fat Woman — Oh, man. That stinks. I always, always avoid driving over plastic bags for that reason.

Shadowsrider — You know, that’s not a bad idea. I feel like we’re overrun now. I’d love to see some color out there. Red. Yeah, I want a red bag.

Vivienne — If they’re still there on Monday, I’m going to submit a ticket to have them removed. They really are ugly and I can’t believe there’s not more outrage.

Carla — I had to look that up, since I’m the only person on earth who hasn’t read the Harry Potter series. You mean Whompin’ Willow? So cool!

unfinishedrambler — I don’t know. I think it’s because I’m the only person in the building who’s bothered by trees full of bags. I don’t get it. It’s a crime!

TheSnackHound — That’s an interesting consideration. I do know that whenever I tell others in my building about it, they look at me weird. I really don’t know why the bags don’t bother them. They should! Joe Blow. Funny!

Oh yeah, like unfinished rambler says, where were they for the entire year while Windy was up there. Do you think in the maintenance headquarters of the place that they too are looking out the window every day at Windy and have their own story about her. Maybe in their world, she is a he and they have named him Joe Blow. Or George. Maybe the fan club is larger than you first suspected. Or, it may be a standoff, where they are seeing how many days it takes someone in your department to call, thereby signifying you notice. TheSnackHound’s last blog post..Say No to Candy Sticks

I’m always late to getting around to comments, and it looks like all the good ones are taken…but, and maybe somebody brought this up, but why hasn’t maintenance taken care of this previously? Have they been receiving kickbacks from you not to remove the bags?

I think it's a band, Gusty and the Gustettes. It's a losing battle. The number of bags is increasing exponentially. If you can't beat them, why not join the fun. Find a bunch of colored bags in Easter colors, and hang them in the tree. Then instead of a tree with bags, it becomes and Easter decoration.

I got my oil changed last week and they didn't remove the plastic bag that has probably become molded to the underside of my car. Your janitorial service people must know my mechanic. MA Fat Woman’s last blog post..How Superstitious Are You?
