Yeah, the title is a bit “redic,” but you’ll get over it. In all seriousness though, I came across an article in a magazine (don’t ask me which one) where they say Jen Aniston turns off the shower whilst shaving her legs. And I bet you that at least 50% of women do not heed that advice, or at least haven’t thought of it themselves. So, I am passing on that trinket of wisdom to you. Save some water and save some money on your oil bill. Turn off the water when you shave your legs rather. It’s better to conserve that way rather than rush shaving to save the time and end up cutting yourself in the shower. (NOW, the title makes sense).

During my lunch at work today, I took a ride down to the mall because I was craving a fruit smoothie from Orange Julius.
(A/N: I must interject that I recognize the non-greenness of owning a 15-year old car and expending gas and CFCs into the atmosphere just to satisfy my craving, but no one is really 100% green all the time, trust me, it’s near impossible. But that is why I made this blog, so that way everyone is able to make at least a bit of an effort).
So, I was driving down there and I stop in for my 5 dollar smoothie. I see the clerk mixing it and I assume it is rather healthy, but she added extra sugar to the fruit and I’m thinking, “Gee, I really don’t need like 5 cups of sugar or whatever she poured in.” However, I didn’t say anything, sucked it up and went on my way. The added sugar, they should really write that in the ingredients under the names of their drinks because I would really prefer not to have it in there.
In any case, I got my Smoothie club card stamped (I don’t know why I didn’t notice the added sugar before), and I was on my way. I was on my way back to work with my Orange Julius in my styrofoam cup. BLUNDER!
Oh my goodness. Styrofoam!? People, come on!
