Why the fuck do typical Christmas cards have to have fucking glitter on them? Shit like that cannot go into paper recycling (I've checked this out) but have to go in the regular garbage. As part of my ongoing purge of shit I came across a small box I'd stored some random crap in and forgot about and I had a few years worth of Christmas cards from almost 10 years ago and 3/4 of them had metallic or glitter shit on them. I did tear the offending covers off the cards to recycle what I could as I like to at least attempt to do my tiny part of the process properly. We sent out zero cards this year and thank God only received a couple as people we know have stopped this useless, expensive habit that is just ingrained in people's heads. Phone calls, text messages and getting together in person is much easier and better.
On a side note, I'd mentioned earlier that I'm on a mission to get rid of stuff and slowly, but surely am making progress! I'm also using the opportunity to rearrange the photos I want to keep in a better way. I'm just pissed at myself for ignoring shit for so long. The downside of having a fucking storage room!
