every single thing *is* a thought that is coloured by the MC.
See, this is where first person and third person kind of blur together... right? Or no? Playing off your examples:
A pile of dog turds on one side, potholes on the other... and of course the broken cars everywhere. The beach or the spa sounded so nice right now. Even whale gutting in the arctic sounded better than this.
That's not much (any?) different than first person, is it? Which, I guess, doesn't matter. I don't know what I'm getting hung up on. I guess it's still stuck in my head from grade school that third person means "She did this. She did that." I feel like switching the syntax from one style to the other, back and forth, in the same ms isn't coming naturally.
