Hmm.

Left hip not great today. I think I did something to it in the bath. Le sigh.

All my medications and some of my vitamins/supplements come in blister packs. This is starting to really bug me. I know they are more convenient for carrying around in coat pockets and so on, and I am grateful for that, but I can't help feeling upset about the waste created by the blister packs. I wonder if I can grill them and make them turn pretty colours or something; because they are metal and plastic and stuff and thing I can't put them in the ordinary recycling.

I know this is just a small thing, but it's a small thing that affects many, many people.

May re-post this to several hippie communities if I don't get enough ideas here. No time now.

I have the same twinges of guilt, though at least I can occasionally get ibuprofen in glass bottles which are marginally more practical.

Empty blister packs make very good mixing palettes for model painting, but it's a fairly niche use...
