Energy Diet

I don't know when I decided to go on this "energy diet" but I guess it started after a read an article in the Times about it. It seemed simple enough and I've aways meant to try and be better at lowering my "carbon index."

You might be wondering, what the hell is he talking about? Basically, I'm just trying to be accountable for all the things that I either consume or dispose of. For example, I try and make sure that whenever I wash my hands at a public bathroom that I only use one paper towel sheet, two tops. Or I'll turn off the light in my room and or TV whenever I'm not there, stuff like that. Every little bit counts right?

Then there's taking public transportation whenever I can and or walk to wherever I am going as well as taking the stairs whenever the opportunity presents itself.

I'm not as tired as I was yesterday which I guess is a good thing. Although today was Halloween and I didn't get dressed up (I went out on Saturday night) I still couldn't help but feel a little mischievous. So when I got to work and remembered that I had my Darth Vader Voice Changer Mask in my desk, I couldn't resist the urge to wear it. And so, when I went out for lunch I put it on and proceeded to walk out onto Times Square and see what people thought.

For the most part people didn't really notice me. I got a few smiles here and there as well as some awkward looks but people pretty much went about there Tuesday afternoon as usual. Oh well it was still fun to do.
