I've Stuck To My Vegan Guns

****

"If any sensible person thinks deeply, he will respect
justice. There is an inborn appreciation and respect for
justice within our human body. In children, we find what
is natural to the human character. But as they grow up,
they develop a lot of conditioning and wrong attitudes. I
often feel there is more truthfulness in a small child and
I find many reasons to have confidence in human courage
and human nature."

Today went by too fast. I think that was because we
weren't home for a large chunk of the day. From 2:45pm
until just a few minutes ago, we where at Bev's house. It
was her son Anthony's 2nd birthday. I wish we saw each
other more often than just at her children's birthday
parties, but I guess that would require me to do something
more proactive in fostering such a friendship. I can't
help but think I've only got enough in me for one good
friend (Gen). Maybe if I didn't isolate myself so much I'd
realize I have a lot of free time. I should use it more
constructively. That would mean not camping out in bed
every weekend.

I've been eating too much lately. It always happens when
Snookums comes home. The one thing I'm really happy about
though, is that I've stuck to my vegan guns and haven't
had anything that goes against my personal pact. Even
today at Bev's. I didn't touch the lumpia or cake or
anything that might not be vegan-compliant. I had a small
bowl of pancit (that I picked the egg out of very
meticulously, twice) and a lot of raw vegetables. The
party wasn't particularly vegan-friendly, but I made due.
Back to the point. I haven't been eating so much I've
gained weight, but I feel heavier because I'm always full.
I don't like the full feeling. I'm not gaining weight
because I'm not eating things that used to make me bloat.
I'm feeling good, but guilty. Next week I'm going back to
my usual routine. Regardless of whether or not Snookums is
here. No more power-eating! Snookums is taking me to a
division Halloween party next weekend and I want to look
particularly ravashing!

Okay, I'm going to relax now. I'm feeling good but tired
from all the socializing I had to do today. Ciao!
