Countdown to Green: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1...

I'm feeling a lot like one of those crazy people standing on a corner in Times Square holding a sign that says, "The End is Near." Radical life revision is just days away and I don't know if I'm ready. A month ago this all sounded like a really good idea. I'd be changing my life. Living healthy. Eating organic and local.
