In which Lambsie thinks on veganism.

These days I cannot help but think that being moral is high maintenance. Am I truly that snobbish for being a vegetarian? I tell myself that I do not judge others for eating meat, but don't I? At least, when it ever comes to having a significant relationship with someone, could I overlook the carniverous habits of a partner? It isn't just about the cute little animals to me, its environmentalism.
And am I a hypocrite to be so inherently judgemental when I myself make a poor vegetarian? Were I vegan, then I would be justified. Then, however, I must also be completely alienated from the majority of the population. High. Maintenance. Self-Righteous. Bitch.
But why should I feel guilty about have qualms about meat consumption? Why should I care if I am disliked for being borderline militant in my environmentalism? The fact is that I am so alone and so insecure that I fear that I will die having always been insulated in my cocoon of my idealism.
I suppose that is the price of morality.
And on the topic of veganism, I plan on phasing out most of my dairy consumption. Go all out on amazing vegan cooking. I have nothing against dairy, just the cruel treatment of the animals who are kind enough to provide it (but no, I do not support PETA, and before you get all huffy, look up just how many of the animals they "save" get put to sleep).
So that's that, low-maintenance Lambsie is dead. Never mind that she can live without running water. Never mind that she can do farm labor. Never mind that she can live out of a backpack for four months.
Lambsie is a bleedingheartvegetarianenvironmentalistsocialistactivistIDEALIST and fucking high maintenance to boot. Think on that, lazy bums.

In which Lambsie goes on detox???

I am resolute. I think.
No dairy.
No refined flour.
No added sugars.
No coffee. (green tea, yes)
No alcohol.

Vegan detox. I need you desperately. I feel like shit.

I'll try not to cheat too much.

A few weeks, at the least, in the extreme mode. Then hopefully I will maintain nice vegan tendencies for ordinary meals and such...just being healthier really. Fruits and veggies galore. That's my real goal, not permanent veganism.

In which Lambsie does not wish to judge...

...yet does not see why she is judged for eating fish in very extenuating circumstances by vegetarians who wear leather. I'm not one to judge...I'm nowhere near strict vegetarian, but besides a pair of 6 year old Birkenstocks, I do not wear leather or fur. It just doesn't make sense to wear cow if I refuse to eat it. People say that's a vegan principle but I don't see why. Not wearing wool is a vegan principle, but leather? I feel like that's vegetarian. So if you are a vegetarian that wears leather, don't go all self-righteous vegetarian on me whilst sporting the Louis Vuitton Nimbus.

We're both slacking off as far as I'm concerned.

Now. I'm off to find some vegan hiking boots.
