...but I'm Guilty of Fear. (I still love Dummy)
So O-Zo-Ma weekend went off without a hitch, it was a real blast (I <3 you guys). I should have some pics on flickr up soon for that. Seriously, either you guys need to move to NorCal, or we just need to make Cali smaller. I wonder how hard it is to plane jack a private jet. I have a pretty big back yard.
Just got back from one trip and I'm already about to take off for another. Thur night / fri morning I'll be flying to VA. Somehow I figure that the whole friday the 13th thing will inverse the normal bad karma that flows through airports, and I'll actually get there on time, if not, early. Wouldn't that be awesome. By the time I'm done with all this I'm going to need a vacation from vacations. That said, it's only mid June. I wonder what I'm going to do for the rest of the summer?
Crisis Core is awesome. If you know what that is and have a PSP, play it.
So I'm semitarian now. You know, semi vegetarian. It's a phrase, I'm coining it. Ever since I started yoga, I've been doing this semi vegetarian thing. Now, don't get me wrong. I'm not, nor do I plan to ever be fully vegetarian. I mean, how can you pass up the opportunity to eat carnitas tacos in Mexico from a street vendor? Basically, what it comes down to is that I don't want to have to think about it. If there's a good vegetarian option on the menu, or I have a good recipe in mind, I'll go with that, but there's no moral high ground in it for me at the moment (although, in all honesty, there are plenty of really good arguments). There are two observations I would note about being vegetarian. First is that you need to eat more. At least it seems that way to me. I'd already been into this thing of snacking on fruit all day, so it's not that unusual to me, but it seems that with the shift of my meals being from protein to veggie, I have to eat even more frequently to compensate. The second is that being vegetarian isn't "hard" per say. You just have to be willing to give up the variety of your meals. Most places you go seem to only have one or two vegetarian option on their menu. If you're the type of person who can find one or two items you like, and be willing to eat that through most of the week, then you're golden. Being vegetarian is easy. If you like a lot of variety in what you eat (and I actually fall into this category), then it's more of a challenge. I think the saving grace for me is that I cook, so I can come up with meals I like. So far I've done a broccoli in orange sauce a couple of weekends ago, and most recently, I've done vegetarian tacos with chilies and onions, and mango salsa (yum). Yeah, a bit of vegetarian I can do. Vegan I can't do. Vegans are crazy, why do you hate food? Silly vegans.
