See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, that would be great, Jess. It's probably not even 20 tapes, if that makes a difference. And msbelle, they include musical hearthrobs of the 90s (LL Cool J, Johnny Gill, I forget who else), and some Buffy. So, probably not to Mac's taste.

Oh! I do have a couple of Schoolhouse Rock, if you want those. (America Rock and Grammar Rock.)

Yep. For example: at my parents' in suburban TX - grocery stores have recycling containers for plastic bags and give a credit for bringing in cloth bags. Plus I am pretty sure they take more types of plastic than we do in NYC (we take ONLY bottles and jugs that are #1 and #2).

I seriously thought my parents had turned into dirty hippies when I saw their reusable grocery bags. But no! Apparently that kind of thing is all the rage in other places.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

it's Schoolhouse Rocky; a chip off the block. Of your favorite scoolhouse, Schoolhouse Rock!

Exactly - more songs for mac to memorize.

Including the Preamble to the Constitution, which should come in handy in sixth grade, if his experience is anything like mine.

I was surprised at all the people bringing their own bags in Las Cruces, at the Albertsons. I mean, it's never been a hotbed of recycling either (not counting cans.) But I'd say at least 25% of customers were carting their own bags. I don't know what the Walmarts (a lot of people grocery shop there now- it's driven out a lot of other groceries) look like.

I don't see that around here much.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

We've been bringing our bags for years, but I'm still really inconsistent about it. The SO does better than me, which is good, cause he does more of the grocering than I do anymore.
