hard times for a vegetarian.

i'm a bipolar vegetarian. it's getting ridiculous. one day i refuse to eat any meat and become upset if there are no good veg options for meals, and then the next day i will sit down to a chick-fil-a sandwich. so sue me.

apparently alabama is testing my dedication to the vegetarian cause, as well. i was dying for a salad today, but there was nothing green to be found in any "restaurant" i found. it was street after street of whattaburger, cheeburger cheeburger, chick-fil-a, burger king, waffle house, cracker barrel, burger king, chick-fil-a, waffle house, etc, etc. i finally found a sandwich place and got a veggie wrap. turns out they grill their veggie wraps which means i got a hot tortilla stuffed with hot wilted lettuce, soggy cucumbers, and mushrooms. i can't think of anything sicker.

anyway tonight i went to a work reception and got my fill on salad. i basically filled my entire plate with salad, throwing a couple hushpuppies on top for balance. people stared at me like i was alien and guess what - i WAS. but man, i've had it up to here with snacky foods and fried stuff. SweetGreen just opened by our house and i couldn't be happier. they have the best salads and froyo, too.

you guys, basically what this boils down to is the fact that i'm just a picky eater with bouge problems. what's a girl to do.

ps i found really cute shoes today at target. score.
pps this trip makes it final - i've visited all states in the southeast! now i only have a few more on the list to cross off. the dakotas, the great lakes states, and the northeast. i smell a road trip...
