Stop Taunting Me!
I’m officially two days into my vegetarian adventures. I thought vegetables are supposed to help with digestion, and I thought that meat was the culprit in smelly flatulence. Well, I haven’t had any more success in the restroom, and my flatulence seems to be more potent than usual. Maybe my body is cleansing itself. Anyone want to hang out this weekend?
On top of bodily functions, I don’t know if it’s just because I am not eating meat, but everyone else seems to be eating great meat-packed meals around me. Before lunch today, Mell taunted me by telling me what Google had on the menu. She debated “out loud” over IM, whether she should have the filet mignon or the ribs. I hope she got worms from lunch. For dinner my mom brought out the good steak, which she promptly consumed in front of me.
I feel sick. I don’t think it’s a result of my diet, but I also don’t think it helps me feel any better when I am lacking in protein. I think I need to pop some vitamins and get some rest.

You must be lacking excitement in your life to partake in such an “adventure.”

Definitely. Japan and Taiwan would have been better adventures, but this costs less and doesn’t use up vacation days.

How come you’re eliminated meat from your diet again? I mean, if I remember correctly, you are quite selective in your veggies, like you don’t eat lettuce because it tastes like Styrofoam (like that time when I was making your burgers at one of your BBQs.)
Just make sure you get a well balance diet by eating fruits and veggies loaded with protein and iron and other minerals that are more prevalent in meat.

I stopped eating meat just for kicks. I guess not so much for kicks, but rather just to see if I can do it. It pretty much sucks. Lettuce doesn’t taste like styrofoam. Its texture is like styrofoam. I’m eating fine, but dropping meat from your diet is kind of strange and my body doesn’t like me for it.

That’s because humans are *supposed* to eat meat, jerk. Easier to be an omnivore like we were meant to be - takes extra effort and time to be an herbivore!
As for Google’s food, don’t be so sad. They’ve really gone downhill. I think it was $16/head that management allotted go lunches, but I’ve heard it’s been dropped to $6/head.
Aside from a few of their select cafes (which have tiny tiny portions), the food had started to turn more into slightly high end catered food than the gourmet food they prided themselves on. facebook’s catered lunches taste about the same as charlie’s cafe at google.
Mell should still keep taunting you though, because you deserve it! ;)
