BOO . . .

. . . GER!

After I woke up from my lovely nap on the train ride home, I saw a relatively cute dude asleep and slumped over in his seat across from me. This just added to the attractive factor, since I understand the joy of sleeping while on forms of public transportation (ok, fine, anywhere). Since I'm not a creeper, my attention turned away from him to stare out the window at the abyss that is the subway. Later, I turn back to see him awake, picking his nose--not once either-- and doing a nasty flicking motion, polluting the train with pieces of himself. My stomach dropped to the floor while my lunch threatened to come up. I wanted to throw my aluminum water bottle at him. I get miffed if people leave their garbage on the train, but this is so much more . . . gaaaaaaaaaahhhh.
This is why I hesitate on instinct when people want to shake hands.


Thought I'd share that lovely gem with you.

Smokin' Some Green

Today: Saw a girl throw and leave her lit cig on the ground, as she clutched her "Plant a Tree" recyclable tote bag and walked into the main building of school.

Good job.

'To borrow or to steal?' really shouldn't be the question, yet . . .

The idea of a community shared bookcase seems cool and full of small town whimsy, but there are some who could (probably would) mess up the point of it by either keeping the books (without donating something to replace it) or by simply 'borrowing' the bookcase.
But the idea could work, depending on where the organic library is set up (and how secure the case is bolted to the ground . . .). I'm not always an optimist (and neither a pessimist), but I'd hope this would work more often than not.

Though,

I am very possessive of my own books . . .
