A blog about me, not kittens

Oh Dear God.

Most of you  know I have a bit of an inner tree-hugger living inside this geeky girl exterior.  I’m all about turning the thermostat down a couple of degrees to save energy and I recycle.

Now, I’m not big into crafts, but I have friends out there that read this blog that are.  However, I’m just putting this out there to serve as notice to those crafty friends that there are just some things that I do not want.

Do-It-Yourself Menstrual Pads

Um.  Um…

So…just so we’re clear.  NEVER GIVE ME REUSABLE MENSTRUAL PADS…EVER EVER EVER.

Happy Wednesday!

  1. All I have to say is — YUCK. I’ve also become a little more environmentally aware of late and have stopped using plastic groercy bags in favor of my own reusable ones, we switched to a “green energy” company for electric service provider, and I recycle all of the plastic bottles I use at work. This, however is one thing that I cannot wrap my head around. Who would want to wash those things?!?!?!?

  2. I don’t know…and it scares me that someone does! :-O

  3. Well, afore the invention of disposable pads, what do you think people used? (;

    Reusable ones. That you washed. (Sanitary Belts, anyone?)

    Just goes to show you – everything comes back around eventually. Everything.

  4. Well I hate to break it to you, until the manufacturers got to it ALL fem hygene was DIY.

    As was diapers and many other goods.

  5. @Pandora and Cursor_: Just because that’s how it used to be doesn’t mean it’s a good idea to revert to. Not that I’m saying that you would want to revert to them. Some things are just best left to the past. ^_^

    Also, I doubt they were made of pink plaid “punk” fabric or knitted to match your hat and scarf. O_o;;

  6. Sweet, I just found Christmas gifts for- nevermind ;)

    Cursor_ I see you get around :)

  7. If there is anything I want less in my pants than a knitted maxi pad, I’m unclear as to what that might be.
