What the eff. I just wrote like a shit load of stuff and now it's all gone. Bah.
Anyways, today's the Live Earth day. It's really cool to constantly be changing the channel to something even cooler. Watching all these artists perform and listen about how we can change our planet to the good before it becomes too late - is really inspiring. And I could tell or maybe just noticed, today especially a change in everyone's attitude about saving the planet.
I'm not sure if you've seen them, but with President's Choice they've started selling these recycled - organic material bags to cut down the usage of plastic bags. The goal is to cut down by 1 billion plastic bags each year if people started using these black bags when they purchase their groceries. Well today when I went to go run some errands for my menopausal mother, I noticed people were buying these bags like MAD. People walking through the front entrance - asking for the bag. People asking store clerks - asking for the bags. People standing in line - requesting for the black bag. Black bag, black bag, black bag.
Granted, they're not THAT big if let's say you had a huge load of groceries, but if its quick shopping they're ideal.. You can even use them for other things like for me - I've used it to carry stuff for work or my lunch. I'm actually considering of buying a couple of more and keeping them in the car when I go shopping or something.
Feel good about saving the world. Get the black bag. It's only .99 cents!
Also, my boyfriend rocks my socks. It's random but I just had to throw that in there..
