Earth Hour

Well I did my part. I managed to for entire hour not use anything that required real electricity. I lit about 10 candles or so and lived as I would normally except with only the light of each flame. I managed to do my 20 minute ab workout, I lifted some weights, did some push ups, played with JJ and finally took a shower. My initial plan was just to head to my rooftop to watch the skyline in all it's darkness however I decided that ultimately I wanted to work out tonight too before I head out to this party, so I prioritized looking good over looking at a bunch of darkened buildings. After I did my things I ended up making it to the rooftop with JJ anyhow for about the last ten minutes of "Earth Hour"... it wasn't anything special. I suppose I expected more lights to be out, but I guess being the largest city in the country that's not entirely possible. I wonder how much fun some of my friends had down at City Hall. Nelly Furtado was doing a free show in support of the cause. I'm not a fan of crowds, especially free-loaders so I thought it would be best to skip the event. How did you spend your Earth Hour?

I forgot about it until about 8:50pm.....pretty sad I know. I guess the consolation would be I don't normally have many lights when I am home..but then of course there is the TV, computer and such. Oh well I will do my part...sometime...somewhere.
