Meat Allergy

Being a vegetarian at times is difficult. When it’s Buffalo wings Tuesday I just have to sit around and drink my beer while everyone enjoys the wings. I think they smell good. People also judge me because of my lack of meet eating.

Last week we had a party at work; one of the other nurses had brought a quiche with eggs. “Does it have ham in it?” I asked.

“Why? What happens if you eat meet?” she wanted to know.

“Nothing,” I shrugged “I just feel bad about myself.”

She laughed and walked away. I guess she wanted more of an allergy then an ethical reason.
