Saving the environment, One cup of coffee at a time...

Yesterday was Earth day. At the client I'm currently at, they gave out really nice metal/plastic cups for coffee. The idea is that you should the new coffee cup instead of getting a new paper cup every time.
This morning was the first time I got to try out my new cup. My client has one of those "flavia" single serving coffee machines. Being very much excited, I chose my favorite blend (Italian) put it in the machine. I could almost taste the coffee already...
*Clank*
That's the noise the cup made as I tried to jam it into the hole at the bottm of the machine where the cup goes.

Huh, would you look at that, the new coffee cup doesn't fit! So what is a person to do?
I've got it! I'll just use a paper cup and when the coffee finishes, i'll pour it into my new environment saving metal cup.
Wow.
I LOVE saving the environment!
