It's been a long time since I've posted--had a wedding to plan and have and recover from, and that loomed large. It's been a time of introspection as well, of looking within, of questioning, and of trying to understand things better. I don't know that I've figured out anything of great significance, but I feel a kind of expectation, that some kind of new awareness may be on the horizon.
That said, I just wanted to post something briefly about a new website I found, courtesy of Sierra Club Magazine. It's called CatalogChoice.org and it allows you to request catalog publishers to take you off their mailing lists through one interface. For some time I've been growing more and more irritated as the catalogs seem to only grow more numerous in my mailbox. I've just signed on for their free service today, and it's a little clunky on my less-than-state-of-the-art computer, but I'm excited about the promise of being able to take myself off the mailing lists of these companies that keep filling up my mailbox with catalogs that I try my best to not even open, lest I succumb to temptation--without having to chase down the contact information of each catalog supplier individually. I think it should be a win-win--less unwanted mail for me, less wasted money for these companies I will not buy from. I think it shows great promise, and encourage anyone with a similar problem to check them out!
