Howdy, Howdy, Howdy! I somehow I picked up that greeting when I worked as a Stage Manager on a production/play called [i]Nickel and Dimed: On {not} getting by in America[/i]. I won't bore you with the details since I was somewhat a Vegan for a week in that production since I had my wisdom teeth removed and reverted to a pure juice diet for over a week. I do NOT recommend that for those who have not studied up on such a diet. And no, I currently do not know of a place or book or website or movie where you can percur that sort of information.
There I go again, NOT talking about the Vegan lifestyle and how it has affected me. Alright chaps, this is what I have to say about it!
Number one rule about a Vegan Diet, at least, my number one rule: BE NOT AFRAID! Testing out and sticking to a Vegan diet is something that is pure magic. My week and three days as a Vegan were beautiful! I exercised at least 40 min a day and I slept better then I have ever done in my entire life! I felt much better then I ever have as well and was relatively more energized throughout the days. The only thing that was discouraging and a little embarrassing was that I had quite a bit of gas that smelled like curdled milk. I can only guess that it was my body trying to get rid of the toxins in my body that came {and still come from} my dairy intake. My small bit of advice would be to cut back on dairy intake’s first if you want to possibly avoid that embarrassment. Okay, now that I had exposed that part of my life to the internet, moving on!
So at Thanksgiving Dinner, I told my family I was going to try a Vegan diet. My dad, the only other vegetarian in the house ignored me while my aunt told me I was treading dangerous waters. I had just finished writing a {THE} research paper for my English class {which you can view, with all it’s errors, on another part of the site. I wouldn’t try copying it if I were you. My teacher had it put onto turnitin.com} about vegetarianism and veganism and kept my passive mouth shut instead of telling her that she was the one in dangerous waters for eating meat. I could have mentioned that the last time I went to the doctor’s office and they read my blood pressure, the nurse said that I could grow to be over 100 with my blood pressure. I could have mentioned that vegetarians and vegans live at least [i]thirteen years longer[/i] then meat eaters. But, I didn’t. Instead, I shut my mouth and turned away from her, which I will say was near impossible given that she is my favorite relative from that side of my family. My mother is a diabetic and refuses to give up her Big Mac from MacDonald’s; otherwise she would be a vegetarian. My father became a vegetarian shortly after I did, but if you were to ask him, he would probably claim that it was all his idea.
I honestly need something that hits the top of my head when I start to drift off topic. Back to the Veganism!
Yeah… this was just an introduction. Just something to read if bored. I honestly cannot think of anything else to say right now, so… click on the back button and click a different link if you want more.
