Bridal Fair

Yesterday we went to a bridal fair (Sheri and I are getting hitched :) ).  We got ambushed with plastic. We didn't even see it coming. We registered online ahead of time and when we got there we discovered that by doing so we had invited them to fill a plastic bag with plastic trinkets plastered with the names and contact info of various businesses that service the wedding industry. It's sort of like if somebody gave us (with the best of intentions) a bag of dead kittens that they'd just prepared especially for me. I can't get mad - they don't know any better, but I'm very disappointed and giving it back won't undo the damage.

The vast majority of our plastic consumption for the year is the result of that fair. We need a bigger box of shame.

Also, we can't find cat food without plastic so we had to buy that.

Other than that - our mission is going very well and hasn't been too difficult.
