the screams of the carrots
not really too much to report. monday was my sisters birthday and we went to some fancy restaurant where i ate a vegetarian meal for all the wrong reasons (which i will discuss in the next paragraph). i gave my sis an mp3 player and she was shocked. my other sister doesn't even know what an mp3 is. she better get hip. my brother got hammered, as usual.
ok, now to explain why i ate a vegi meal:
my father-in-law is this super hippie guy who works for a non-profit organization called TREE UTAH. what do they do at TREE UTAH? they plant trees. now, i am in the publishing industry. we print magazines. they use paper, which as i'm sure everyone knows, is made from trees. are you seeing the problem? i kill trees, he plants them. for the longest time he didn't really understand what i did for a living, but some how in the last three months or so he's figured it out. granted, i don't actually cut the trees down, and most paper companies plant as many trees as they cut down a year. regardless, now everytime i see him, he makes these condescending comments to me about it. it doesn't really bother me, i just think it's kind of funny. so, when we were at dinner the other night, i thought it might be best to eat vegetarian (as he is a vegi), so as not to give him any more reasons to hate me. it's a stupid thing, and it probably only made me feel better, but oh well.
"damn you! let the rabbits wear glasses!"
