so, am i awake yet?
i was in around 9 am and crashed hard until around 7 pm. i did some cleaning on sunday night, but crashed hard again on monday morning. i didn't actually eat until monday evening - three smoothies and some eggs - but i crashed again at about midnight, for another 12-13 hours or so.
considering that i slept most of the day on friday, i only missed one day of sleep. what did i sleep in total, there? 3 + 7 + 6 + 13 = 29 hours. i should have slept 6-8 on saturday, 6-8 on sunday and 6-8 on monday and 6-8 on tuesday, meaning 24-32. let's hope i'm caught up.
and, i'm back to what i was doing.
this weekend is canada day...

he walked right into this.
chances are pretty high that somebody gave him the fork, and short of walking around with cutlery in his pants, which is likely to spur criticism of a different sort, there's not actually a lot you can do in that situation. i mean, i ate at a restaurant in detroit on saturday morning that gave me a plastic fork; my choices were to cancel the order or just use the fork, and i used the fork, and i'm not accepting responsibility for it, even though i didn't take the fork home (and i normally would have). if this draws attention to anything of substance, it's the fact that the issue we have in front of us is not a consequence of consumer choice, and will not be solved by focusing on consumption patterns. the problem we have in front of us is one of corporate culture, and needs to alter at the supply side; we don't have an issue with a demand for single use products so much as we have a corporate culture where they're seen as normal and are thrown at us when we don't actually want them. the responsibility here lies with the person that actually made the decision, and it wasn't him, as it wasn't myself that made the decision to use a plastic fork on saturday morning.
that said, if you're going to push for stupid policies then you should expect stupid coverage in response to your stupid policies.
no sympathy; he deserves this.
