Me: by the way, woke up vegetarian this morning. Don't know if it'll last, but today I care about it. We'll see if I care about it tomorrow. *smooch*

Him: okie dokie. We currently have one block of tofu.

Me: And about a metric butt ton of beans. :-)

Him: You know how the PeeChee folders used to have weights and measures charts: 3 tsp = 1 tbsp, 8 oz = cup?

We need one of those, so I know how many shit loads there are in a butt load, etc: 2 shit loads = 1 butt load

Now that I know there's a difference, I also need metric to English conversions: 1.2 butt loads = 1 metric butt ton

Nope. About seven months ago (I only know about how long because it was after I met someotherguy in late January, but before the breakup with cute-poet-chick in mid-April), I woke up in the morning, after twenty-plus years as a vegetarian (with a few 'lapses' here and there) and didn't care about it any more. I didn't eat meat that day, but the next time something made of meat appealed to me (don't remember what it was -- might have been a scallop thing that stonebender's partner's partner had ordered), I ate it. And since then, I still eat mostly vegetarian foods, but I have also eaten meat when I want to. Today, I woke up not wanting to, and caring about whether or not I do.

When I was a vegetarian and recovering from an eating disorder, I promised myself that if I woke up one day wanting a hamburger, I would eat it. Essentially, that's what happened.

Gosh, thanks. I like you lots and lots, as well, and I'm not just saying that for symmetry's sake. :-)

(Apparently, I am not now a vegetarian. *shrug* I have been describing myself as an ex-vegetarian for a few months, and that feels okay. So long as no one tries to make me eat gizzards, I think everything will be fine. *grin*)
