The contents of my garbage

Remember the technique from chapter 3 (page 83)? The one about describing a character by the objects in their wastebasket. This morning I realized that my garbage can describes my and my roommates lives (at the moment) so well. We've got:
-eleven dead roses (an apology from my crazy ex)
-an unused condom (because my roommate fails)
-unfinished calculus homework (that was due friday)
-an empty milk carton (from friday night's munchies)
-puke (from last night AND this morning)
-my work schedule
-a bill from the nurse from the 'morning after' pill
That is all I can see from the top, because I can't look too far into it, it's full of puke. I just thought that was pretty odd. It makes me realize how much Canton sucks
