So, I'm trying to be more environmentally friendly lately. I've taken to carrying around these canvas bags in my car so when I go grocery shopping or target shopping, i don't need to choose between paper and plastic. I've become more vigilant about recycling.
And then yesterday, I was in line at the Factory Card Outlet. As I watched the cashier ring up my purchases and then bag them into my eco-friendly canvas bag...I wondered if she thought it was ironic as I did that I was buying paper plates and cups. UM, shoot.
In other news...halloween was wednesday. Anyone have any advice on how to deal with pre-teen hoodlums? I had two doorbell rings (this was my first time ever doing anything with trick-or-treating) and the first was a group of six boys in skater gear (not a costume, i've seen them skating all over the neighborhood). I gave them some candy and then noticed that a bag of leaves from my neighbor's yard was split and opened all over my yard....as well as a large rubber ball one of the hoodlums was kicking around. When asked, they claimed to know nothing about the ball (that i'd just seen them kick) or the scattered bag/leaves/rake.
What the heck. How do I find their parents?! Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Out! Happy WEEKEND! :-D

Here's my advice:
Kick their ass seabass!
Ya see, Rebekah--this is why Minnesota has a conceal and carry law. You just whip out that handgun and say, "Are you SURE you don't know anything about those leaves? I bet you boys could get all of them cleaned up before I shoot one of you."
Works every time.
