What Kind of World Is This?

After arriving home last night around 7 and unpacking the entire car by myself, with zero help from Baxter, I emptied every bag, every suitcase, every box that I had brought back with me, putting everything away. There was some trash, including a pumpkin that was on its way to nastily rotting, so I took it all in the backyard where the alley is. Everyone has a green plastic trashbin that belongs to them. It stays in the alley at all times - at least mine does. But last night, while I leaned over the fence to dispose of my garbage, it was missing. Someone stole my trashbin! I walked up and down the alley last night and then again this morning with more light but nothing. It's gone. Vanished. Disappeared. Why would someone take a trashbin? More specifically, why would they take mine and leave everyone else's? This doesn't seem fair. There is a conspiracy about and I intend to solve it.

It's a horrible, horrible thing that happened. Try taking Bax for a walk when you're home for lunch and go up and down the alley looking for the address on the side of the bin. Hopefully you'll find it like Grandpa did last time it was "misplaced".
