Sincere apologies for the 3-week hiatus!
A lot has gone on in my greening little world in the past three weeks, chickadees!
First, Vanderbilt Homecoming on Oct. 13, wherein we suffered a devastating loss to UGA (yes, Vandy did lose, but there are many of us in Commodore Nation who are loathe to say that UGA won...). The loss, I am sad to say, depressed me for longer than just the weekend.
BUT - I was lifted from my depths of despair by GreenerNashville.org.
I'm entering into a partnership with them! This blog will be moving to their site eventually (I'm not sure about the timeframe, but I will certainly keep y'all updated).
This is so incredibly exciting, I can barely contain myself.
See, way-back-when (ha. ha. 7 weeks ago... can you see the computer screen shimmy like a bad Saved-By-The-Bell flashback?), when I said
When I started looking for resources to help me, I didn't find much. Either I'm not looking in the right places or there's just nothing there... but I hope that this blog will ultimately provide a resource for anyone wishing to get a little greener here in Music City.I hadn't found GreenerNashville.org! So when they contacted me, you can imagine how thrilled I was. People who were already set up to do what I had hoped to do with livegreennashville.com! And - despite my tendency to go very lizard-brainy on someone who beats me to a punch - I wasn't at all jealous. Here's the thing - GreenerNashville and I were made for each other. I hadn't found them in my googling because they don't have much text content, so their SIO was low and I never dug deep enough to find them. Now, hopefully, my rambling little writings can help them - and being over there, more readers will find me. What a grand way to feed my own ego while being a part of something utterly cool!
I feel hip! I feel groovy! And I am exceptionally excited to embark upon a real writing gig once again.
So, my charge to you, my few-and-faithful readers - tell people about GreenerNashville.org. In a very perfect world, I will be popular enough to garner some advertising dollars so that I can.... shhhhhhh... afford to be a writer.
Anyway, that's the long and short of why I was gone for so long. I was talking with Moses and Anthony over at GreenerNashville, and I was plotting the next year of this blog. I suddenly have so much to share with y'all, I don't know what thread of thought to pick up first. I'm going to try to lay a groundwork of ideas to start from so that I'm not throwing too much at y'all at once - check out my first post about the Tragedy of the Commons, and my previous post about Economies of Scope vs. Economies of Scale. They are, admittedly, some heavy, very "macro" ideas, but I wanted to throw them out there so that I can build off of them from here. I feel like, right now, my three very philosophical cuds to chew are the latter two, as well as what I'll be writing about in my next post - Stockholders vs. Stakeholders and why I'm excited about the idea of a B-Corporation.
So, I'll be back this Friday, October 26. I can't wait!
