Haha, oh, god, I would be your customer. I also laughed when I clicked the random clip art link. Awesome.
I think people are really stoked when they "get" symbolism, and the lotus, with its blossom-from-shitty-conditions vibe, really rings people's Metaphor Bell.
Ha, I've been vegan for ten years, formerly for ethical reasons, now mainly because I'd probably have to be hospitalized for dehydration following the storm of diarrhea caused by eating meat. Animal products + my digestive system= certain disaster.
Its funny, I remember you lecturing me on veganism and why I should be vegan on a few occasions, forgetting that I was and had been for a while. Something about me must scream "eats cheeseburgers" that I don't know about...
haha, seriously?! well i was newly vegan when i was 21, before i moved to nyc, so its possible that i was still reminding myself to stay vegan, and excited about it in general. but hmm, i swore i remember you eating a pizza with cheese.....was it possible that you did eat non-vegan on occasion? i know that you always had dietary restrictions, which ones i couldnt memorize, but you didnt tell me that you were completely vegan from what i remember.
I'm SEVERELY lactose-intolerant, so if I did eat that pizza, I must have been really drunk and spent the rest of the week crapping my brains out. I can think of a handful of occasions in which I got stoned and thought Ben and Jerrys or Hagan Daaz would be a good idea. There was always hell to pay for several days following, so those occasions are few and far between.
Oh, but heres a new thing: I don't drink, smoke, or do any substances beyond caffeine in tea. I can't believe I've stuck with this! On New Years, I'll be one year sober! Nuts!
Hows Germany treating you? I heard you longing for some NYC, any chance of a visit within the next year or so?

are you vegan mainly for ethical reasons, or for your physical health?
