Moves in Curves

Usually for NaNoWriMo, I pick up a Moleskine, so I can cart it around with me everywhere in case I get an idea. I do the majority of my writing directly on OpenOffice, so I don’t usually fill up the Moleskine for quite some time – the next NaNoWriMo.

This year I went to Barnes and Noble as usual and grabbed the Moleskine I normally get, the black ruled classic style. But then another display caught my eye, because I favor the color turquoise. Ecosystem makes a Moleskine-like notebook of recycled materials, for the same price as a Moleskine. Well hell, I thought, I like buying recycled cack whenever the opportunity arises. It also said 100% made in America. I checked the Moleskines, and it says “designed in Italy. Made in China.”

China??? Didn’t they used to be made in Italy? I don’t like buying Chinese-produced anything, so I dumped the Moleskine and grabbed a Lagoon ecosystem ruled notebook instead. And you know, there’s no difference in using the two. In fact, I think the Ecosystem one is better, but I may be blinded by the pretty color. Ecofriendly NaNo-ing ftw.

Mon, 10pm, ABC: Castle

Tues, 8pm, CBS: NCIS (and probably NCIS-LA afterward, though it’s not as good, and then the Good Wife)

Wed, 10pm, ABC: Eastwick

Thur, 8pm, Fox: Bones

Thur, 9pm, ABC: Grey’s Anatomy (and probably Private Practice afterward, though again, not as good)

Aside from that, I’ll be writing. It’s NaNoWriMo time again!
