Coffee Cup 1082
I did not have my first cup of coffee until after dinner. Today featured the last of my rotations. This time Parks and Recreation.
They were perky enough to keep me awake despite my decaffeination. 1082.

Coffee Cup 1081
Okay, though I may suck at being green I have a very strong water ethic. Living in very fragile water evironments (currently a desert valley) forces one to be a water steward. If you have an hour, I will be happy to share with you the story of our desert water cycle.
And although I continue to purchase beverages in single use containers, I recycle them. I buy organic fruits and veggies, but not milk. I get most of my proteins from soy products and other legumes. I would practice xeriscaping in my yard if I had a yard. I know better than to serve a vegetarian a bowl of peas while the family eats a roasted farm animal leg or something. 1081.

Coffee Cup 1080
I do know better and I have a couple of thermals. Yet, I always forget to bring them. I am expecting another friendly reminder from Siel.
Yes, I know that our sun will go all red giant one day and swallow our Earth, but that does not mean we do not need to be good stewards in the mean time. I will do better and do my part. Are there disposable cup credits I can buy to ease my guilt? 1080.

Coffee Cup 1079
We drove 7 hours to shop in an outlet mall and to hang with my in-laws.
They buy their baby girl dinner. I get to come along. 1079.

Coffee Cup 1078
Did you know that there is an American Vacuum Society? Did you know that they are based in New York and have no interest in robotic cleaners? My bad.
They are hosting an International Conference on Microelectronics and Interfaces in Austin. Anyone want to crash? Leave me a message on my answering machine, (512) 597-0947. 1078.
