So hey.
You know what happens when you prepare, then attend, your yearly epic Con experience, and then immediately go back to working 50 hours a week instead of your 19 hours from the summer?
You ignore your blogs & reading lists for a few weeks.
Suffice to say that con pretty much ruined any hope of being "green" for that first week -- it's nearly impossible to do that when you're eating out of a mall food court for multiple meals a day (that said, I always consciously chose the smallest polystyrene containers at the buffet places). There are other things I could've done differently had I prepared a bit better, but I already have had a post drafted for a month or two about that (not that I followed much of my own advice, there!)
Anyway, I've finally managed to catch up on most of the important things (lol laundry), so it's back to the grind...
