Beef, Pork, Chicken... mmm?

Once upon a last month I tried to be a vegetarian. Don't worry, I didn't want to try it forever. Just one month. Unfortunately, around day 7 I couldn't wait until it was over. It was SO hard! I gave up some of my favorite foods for black bean burgers and vegetarian dishes, picked chicken from my salads, and cooked up omelets when everyone else was eating chicken alfredo. True dedication if you ask me! With 8 days left, I got asked out on a date. We'll call him Elmer Fudd. He was a good friend from freshman year and I was super excited.

The date started at 8, so I assumed we wouldn't have dinner. Wrongo! He picked me up and I soon discovered that DINNER was the exact plan.

Now, at this point in the story, I have a riddle for you. Lets see if you can figure it out.

What's expensive and fancy with meat all over?

Bingo! Tucanos. As in, the Brazillian steak house. And that is exactly where we pulled up.

Elmer: "So, I really hope you like meat. Cause.. if you were a vegetarian, this would be REALLY awkward."

......

I kid you not. These exact words came from his mouth.

Dating Rule #91: Sometimes you must make painful sacrifices in order to avoid an extremely awkward situation. 

And that, my friends, is exactly what I did. I ate meat. I only had 8 days left and I had to give in! So now, thanks to Elmer, I can say that I was a vegetarian for exactly 1 month - 1 day.
