This is too funny! I've been guilty of a lot of these, but now I have lots more ideas!
1. You get very excited when your next-door neighbor gets a herd of cows.
2. You scavenge your friends trash cans when you visit, to get all the 'goodies' that they've thrown away.
3. When you see your neighbor raking leaves in the fall, you run over to ask if you can have them.
4. When visitors ask you if they can use your bathroom, you tell them your toilet is broken, and ask them to pee into a container, so that you can add all that 'natural nitrogen' to your compost pile.
5. When neighborhoods place all of their raked and bagged leaves out for the city to pick up, and you want to cry because you've run out of room in your car to bring all that you see home.
6. You can't see how to change lanes, because of all the bags of leaves in your car that you've picked up.
7. Your car still has tell-tale odors from last year's manure haul.
8. You bribe employees of the local coffee shops to save their spent grounds for you.
9. You barter home-grown vegetables for sacks of lawn and grass clippings.
10. When you give a compost-turning tool for a house-warming gift.
11. When you start talking to other people about 'greens' and 'browns'.
12. When co-workers look at you strange for taking home all the scrap paper from the trash can beside the copy machine.
13. When you ask your co-workers if you can have their banana peels and apple cores.
14. You offer to help clean a chicken coop in exchange for the bedding.
15. Weeding is now for the purpose of feeding your compost pile.
P.S. My bathroom is in good working order, so feel free to visit.
