Mid-Year Resolution

I've always been interested in local foods, and feel that every one should focus on buying local whenever possible. However, I've always felt that univeristy makes this difficult because of lack of time. I've chosen the most convient location to buy all of my food.

But now I realize there are many stores in the down town region which offer local produce and meat. I was thinking I had to drive out to a farm and buy half a cow, but there are butchers that do that for me...! I will make more of an effort to go to these locations and finally increase my local consumption.

This will help me in my goals to:
*Reduce the amount of C02 produced indirectly by my decisions
*Increase the amount of walking I do
*Support small business
*Reduce my dependancy on large scale business which comprimise animal and human rights and potentially my health.

My Blogger

I used to post every week, but now it's more like every month. However, I do still do it, making it the longest I've done anything consistently in terms of hobbies. At first I thought, neeto! But then I realised how what a sad thing that says about my work ethic or consistancy. It'll be five years this summer, and six if you include the old deleted blog of yore.

I will attribute my lesser quantity of posting to other online outlets, like facebook, which i actually get comments on from time to time. did you know that my posting is directly proportional to my knowledge that others actually look at my shit?

also, i live downtown, and live with people, which means i see people more often, and therefore have less time to write. before i lived all the way in the south end and no one wanted to hang out with me at my end. Because i was far away, the computer was my main source of entertainment. therefore, my postings in general increase the less i hangout. but that is not the only factor...

also, i have just not been writing as much, maybe i'm going through a phase, but i haven't wrote my dreams down in my dream blog either, tho there have been many.

sometimes i get an idea that i want to write but then totally forget later... did i ever tell you my mouldy bread theory?

if not, that's another post. maybe i'll make two this month.
