The Guiltridden Groupie
I like rock shows.
Okay, I mean, I really love rock shows. There is nothing better than heading out late evening with levels of anticipation (think Christmases of childhood) knowing I am going to hear heavenly blistering loud music. Jumping about in the lights from the stage watching a drummer count, bassist careen, keyboardist contort, guitarist scream and shouting out lyrics that I have obsessively been listening to, that is my idea of havin’ a time.
Rebecca’s “26-L” Water Conservation Challenge – Prelude in Pee Minor…
What is the Water Conservation Challenge?
Basically, we're on a mission to use no more than 25-L of water per day, over as many successive days as possible (these folks suggest trying it for 30 days: http://www.howlowflowcanyougo.com/). The idea of the Challenge is to raise awareness of how little water is needed to live comfortably, but necessary to live sustainably.
Where Does Our Water Come From?
Thinking Ahead: Lessons from Childhood
When I was a young child, every summer my mom and I would go to the Laundromat to do the wash. I thought it was an amazing amount of fun to meet new people, use the change machine, and sometimes I’d even be allowed to get a chocolate bar out of the vending machine! What could be better than that?
