…and damnit, I miss him.
Genius!
This photo, which has been making the rounds here on Tumblr, and on Pinterest and Facebook, shows us a simple plastic jug repurposing idea: Cut off the handle part of a discarded plastic container, and use it as a scoop/shovel/dustpan. (Genius, indeed!) Chances are, you’ve seen it already.
What you probably haven’t seen, though, are other jug uses from the person who initially circulated this photo [actually, these photos (plural)].
I (Molly) dug around online and found this source, a Naver blog, for the above photos. On that Naver blog, I also spotted this post highlighting this shoe storage idea: Maximize shelf space by “stacking” shoes in … plastic jugs! Also genius!
For a more whimsical use of plastic jugs, making toy trucks from them (as featured in this earlier Unconsumption post) still gets high marks from me.
Tell us if you’ve come across other plastic container-related reuse ideas that you think we should know about.
I am going to organize the shit out of my sohoes.
…after a few more weeks of milk-drinkin’.

Y’know, besides periodically creating and neglecting blogs, and starting posts with “I” (so self centered).
I believe I will pursue a career in venue booking/show planning/promotion! I already have a thing for making friends with bands, and I go to shows all the damn time anyway, and somebody has to put them together…why the hell not me?
Bonus, the schedule is way better than 9-5 crap I do now, and the job is not so soul-sucking. And I could continue writing reviews and taking show photos! Winning all around!
Speaking of, looks like I have a long night of texting ahead of me.
First meal of the day — half-assed chicken salad:
I don’t even really LIKE pancakes.
What’s more, I googled it, and apparently this is a thing.
6 weeks ‘til I visit, for apartment shopping and making good on a long-overdue booty call.
So I have 6 weeks to kick this whole ‘fitness’ thing into high gear. I’m in pretty damn decent shape already, but my midsection is a point of personal contention.
Things I intend to do for the next 6 weeks to help with this:
I think it’ll be easier to stick to because I have a specific goal — must look good in 6 weeks for boy, and in 10 weeks for city.
