  1. I love that showering every other day appeals to my laziness, my greenness, and my dry skin.

  2. It’s nice when something wins on all counts like that.

    I have a really hard time waking up if I don’t shower. And, since my hair is still short from donating, I still have that Flock of Seagulls thing going on when I wake up in the morning. A few more inches and I’m going to start functioning with an extra couple cups of green tea and a ponytail every other day.

  3. i thought the buffalo article was going to be about people eating too much buffalo meat!!! ack! my beau and i have found a sustainable buffalo farm in NH where we see the animals we might one day eat. i like that deal.

    the article was disappointing still. humans have come to monopolize and change the environment so much…but somehow we’ve not learned how to do it fairly, justly nor thinking about long term effects. sigh.

  4. I know. It totally reminded me of that scene in Dances With Wolves where the bad people killed all those Buffalo and just left them there — this total wasteful act — whereas the tribes would have used every part and been respectful. I remember bawling my eyes out at that part when I saw that movie in jr. high. I guess that’s a weird association. But in jr high, I had a major Kevin Costner crush. I mean, he was Robin Hood, you know. . .
