midway mermaid: day 1

can i have your garbage?

that was the subject of the email i sent to co-workers asking them to let me take their workday waste home with me to use in the midway mermaid project. definitely not an email one expects to receive from a co-worker (um, or anyone?), but they were good sports about it.

carrying a white kitchen garbage bag filled with to-go containers home with me on the subway elicited some interesting looks and an unusually large buffer around me.

today's lesson: if you don't want people all up in your personal space on the subway, carry a bag of garbage with you.
