It's feast or famine.

I had a dream with David Boreanaz in it. How much does that rock? He was being very nice to me. ^_~

I know how much you just die to know what I do with my weekends (ha), but I actually had an over-full dance card this Saturday. Today my goals are to work on Ch 21 of "TC" -- there's a point to where I'm going, I'm sure -- and clean my apartment. Which isn't to say I'm not open to a better offer... . I just don't see a better offer forthcoming.

Disposable World

Article found on Enjae's LJ. I'm posting it here, too, because this is something that really irks me. I haven't bought paper towels in years. The only cleaning product that I use is a parsley based one from Seventh Generation. I've been using washable microfiber towels (and a mop) for years, and, you know what? They *work*.

The two of us produce about 1 t-shirt bag sized amount of trash per week. You know how? Because we use *re-usable* things, like tupperware-type containers instead of saran wrap, and linens, and we buy things with minimal packaging. "Individual portion cups" are anathema. I pack my lunch to take to work; it doesn't take any more effort to portion it for myself.

I ask for a mug for my latte. I don't use straws when I'm sitting still in a restaurant. I don't need a bag when/if I buy a 2 liter bottle of something or a six-pack, or a single item like a box of cereal or a CD or book.

All it takes it to start seeing what you do out of habit, and for it to matter to you.
