I haven't eaten meat for almost two weeks. I guess I should come out of the closet here and say that I'm actively pursuing a vegetarian lifestyle. It's pretty exciting, actually. And it's really not that hard; everyone says that it requires incredible powers of will to stop eating meat (especially if you've grown up in a place like Iowa, which is famous for growing vegetables but somehow not vegetarians), but for me it almost happened by itself. I was at the public library and, on a whim, I picked up a book on the subject and then - without thinking - I just sort of stopped buying and eating meat.
My only concern about it is being a stick-in-the-mud at family meals. But there are few enough of those anymore that it's really not a serious impediment.
Blogs are awesome. I think my friends should make them, too. Don't you think so?
