Another Vegan

****

Gen fell asleep on my couch. She looks kind of cute! We've
spent all day together. I had a meeting at work this
morning from 8am-9:30pm. She came to watch the girls for
me. Tamara didn't want us bringing our kids because
they're too disruptive and I can't agree more. So, Gen
came to them (because they were still asleep). We've been
together ever since I got home, around 9:45am. Having a
good friend to pass the time with is such a great thing.
She's lifted my spirits and hopefully, I've helped make
her feel better, too. Her husband is also in the Navy and
gone right now. Not quite as long as Snookums, but still a
good amount of time. Neither of us likes the position
we're in.

I made a big pot of white bean provencal soup. It was
okay, but not as good as some of the soups I've made from
scratch. This one was a premade soup mix from World
Market. It had all the beans and herbs in one bag, which
was convenient, but not exactly what I wanted. Don't get
me wrong, it was still really good, just not as good as my
homemade soups.

For dinner we had Chinese. I wish I could just get in
control of my eating, but it's so hard. Being vegan
doesn't guarantee that I'm not going to over eat. Oreos
are technically vegan (no animal products). But, that
doesn't make them good for me. I've got a lot of time
before Snookums comes home. I'll make my goal.

Guess what I've been doing today? Chatting with a vegan I
met on veganmyspace. His name is Jeremy and I find him
quite interesting. He lives in Seattle and is very
entertaining. I must have chatted with him off and on for
about 8 hours today. Whenever the AIM makes that little
chime noise, I get a grin on my face. I'm a sucker for
attention. I don't feel I get enough of it. Of course, all
those feelings of infidelity come to the surface again,
just like last summer. Only, this time I'll have a much
longer time frame in which I'll have to fight the urge. I
love Snookums so much and I don't want to hurt him, but
sometimes my curiosity really tempts me. I want to know
what it would feel like. Would it be worth it? Would I
regret it? Would I be able to keep it to myself? Could I
ever look him in the eye again? I don't know. Snookums
trusts me and I don't want to violate that trust, but oh
my goodness. Jeremy is hot (at least the picture on his
profile is)! Gen and I might be meeting him on Tuesday. We
were going to head over to Seattle anyway, just to walk
around and have some fun. Why not make it a little more
interesting? He works at a hotel near the ferry terminal
(he's an accountant), so we're going to meet him for
lunch. I'm not going alone, so there's nothing to worry
about this time. I just hope he isn't my physical type and
it just ends up being a friendship with another vegan.
That's what I wanted all along.

I'm so tired. It's almost midnight. I think I'll be going
to bed now. I didn't get the house finished or the laundry
done today like I'd wanted to, but who cares? I have no
one to impress. Ciao.
