We're Thinking "My Darling"

Nanu nanu!

There's nothing like writing a post from bed. Ahhh the joys of laptops. I watched the movie Pulp Fiction last night for the first time and it wasn't over until about 1:30 AM. Which actually worked out well because my roommate had locked me out of our room and he came back in about 10 minutes after the movie was over. My roommate has difficulty getting up in the mornings. Especially for an 8 O'clock class, so, like the rest of us, he uses the snooze button. However, unlike the rest of us. he started using it at 6:15 this morning, almost two hours ahead of time....and didn't slow down for over an hour. Every nine minutes I got a nice little reminder of the retro sounds of an alarm made in 1987. Doesn't matter much now though I suppose. We're all fine now.
Now, you may not believe it, but every day spectacular ideas go through my head of what I can write about. It just seems that 90% of the time I usually forget those ideas before I can get back to my computer. Well, I'm happy to report that I didn't forget what I dreamed up yesterday. NUTRITION AND THE WORLD OF VEGETARIANS!!!

I don't often worry about what I eat. Usually, I enter Wag with great joy and shove every bit of food in my mouth I possibly can. Yesterday, however, may have changed that. In my standard issue PED lecture I got an earful about how horrifically bad for me all the food I eat is. I Usually eat lots of bread, meat, and cheese/dairy. That's pretty much all I eat. Of all the things she said were important to eat, well, none of my food really fell in there. She suggested blueberries for fruit and Broccoli for a vegetable, both for their antioxidants. Oh well, I like blueberries but you'll never catch me with broccoli in my mouth. She went on to explain how we needed a lot of fiber in our diets and how exactly we could go about getting that fiber. It usually entailed eating something I thought you fed to farm animals. Nevertheless, I managed to eat healthier last night at Wag, aside from the pasta I got. I had a bowl of pineapples and a bowl of granola. let me tell you....mmm mmm good.
Now on to Vegetarians. Strange breed those veggies/veagans...strange breed indeed. I say this having a very good friend that's a veagan, so I know from experience. No no, I'm only kidding of course. For vegetarians it seems that the primary concern for why they choose their diet is their own health, and as an added bonus they get to help the wittle animals as well. Veagans are straight crazy. Those hardcore hippies don't even buy cars with leather interiors or wear leather shoes. No milk, no cheese, no problems. I have to admire their spirit even if I, myself, don't have the care or the willpower, even if I had care. I do, however, feel that the factory farming industry needs to have VERY strict regulations put on it as to how the animals are treated while they're alive and how they are HUMANLY put to death. If you ask me, it makes a bigger statement against the factory farmers to write your representatives about bringing into law new regulations to protect these animals. I say, if you're really in it for the animals, you may be a veggie/veagan, but no one will know it. If you're not eating the animals for the animals benefit that's great, but don't get an ego pop out of it. Ego boosts don't help the animals you aren't eating. Go ahead and organize a group to write congress and sign petitions. When I see that day I'll hop right onboard with the neo-hippies and sign those papers. Cause, you know, you got to fight the man!
