Who knew

So who knew that by deciding to be vegan for 30 days I would incite such unrest among my friends and co-workers.  It’s hillarious but I put that I was going vegan on my Facebook page and sooo many people had something to say.  Half the people were sweet, rooting me on, telling me that 30 days is nothing.  Others acted as if my choice were a personal affront to them.  It’s crazy.  I mean, I knew people get touchy about not eating meat but some, including those that I haven’t spoken to in nearly a decade (thanks for making them friend me FB) said that vegans embarrassed them.  Everyone knows someone that doesn’t eat meat so they each had a story.  Then it struck me that only 1% of the population is vegan.  That means there are way more gays than vegans, which for some reason made me feel better.  But seriously people, how pissed can you be at me for deciding not to eat animal products for a mere 30 days.  That’s only one month, folks.
