"I'm still in that weird place where meat is kind of grossing me out but I eat it everyday."
This is what I said in my last post.
To Ka:
Let's not take everything so literally. I love eating meat, I've yet to find a vegetable that can pack as much flavor and be as filling. My biggest problem lies with the mass production of it. When I think about how it was handled before it got to me it's enough to make me sick.
Speaking of meat, I think last night was the best night I've ever had on the grill. The pork came out great the sweet potatoes were good and the onions were a little crunchy yet not too crunchy. Since we purchased our charcoal grill two years ago I've been nothing but a disaster. Last night I switched my whole game plan and started cooking with the lid on, as recommended in the Weber instruction manual and some grilling book I got out of the library. This is contrary to some massive grilling book that I borrowed from our neighbors. So be it. I have found my path and become a man again! Bring on the meats!
Sometimes I think, what happened to me lately that was funny I need to put funny stuff in the blog. I think all I really want from this blog is to showcase my comedic brilliance. It has yet to happen. My days aren't that funny. Let's take today for instance:
I woke up and organized some bills. Have to make sure everything gets paid on time. Then my wife woke up and we made the coffee together. I never thought I would be one of "those people" the ones who have coffee before they even have anything to eat. We'll that's me. My wife (note: need to find better blog term for "my wife") went off to work for a couple of hours and I stayed with The Kid. We mostly played in her tent, it is tiny and with her and I and both dogs it got way too crowded and way too smelly. My wife came home and I went to work. On my way to work blah, blah, blah....and now I'm writing my blog and it is time to go to sleep. What a funny day I had.

Oh my gosh! I think being called a literalist is just about one of the worst
insults! It really made me realize perhaps I've been taking a real hard-line
on the blog--I really couldn't help it last post--my husband and I just came back from visiting a friend who is a long-time vegetarian and animal-rights supporter--well! her new (and offensive) boyfriend (a carnivore) just asked my husband if vegetarianism was something he had to "break" her of! Can you believe that?! It's interesting and disturbing that the word he chose is one we usually use when talking about animals! Anyways, my friend is pretty ga ga over this guy...so I'm not sure how or if I should tell her what he said...
Anyways, all that to say, I guess I'll lighten up a bit. A literalist! Ugh!
love, Ka
